INTRODUCTION :
Pakistan is facing complex environmental problems such as air, water, and soil pollution, overuse of natural resources and species’ deterioration. Humans have used the environmental resources ruthlessly over the decades. The protection of environment from degradation is very essential for sustainable life on the surface of earth. Natural resource conservation, preservation and management have drawn both national & international attention.
The Department of Environmental Planning and Management was, therefore established with collaboration of Environment and Urban Affairs Division, Government of Pakistan, in 1987, at University of Peshawar to cater formal education and research in the field of Environmental Sciences at postgraduate level.
Looking into environmental challenges both nationally and internationally the department was renamed as Department of Environmental Sciences (DES) in 2001. The curricula were improved and new subjects were introduced. The Department is one of its kinds in the whole country.
