When it comes to civil service coaching, Environment & Geography is taught as a subject focusing mainly on Physical Geography, (which includes ecology and human geography among others) Indian and World Geography.
An integral part of GS Paper I in the UPSC Prelims, you will find a major overlap in the questions related to both environment and geography and their relevance in current affairs and news. Given that they’re such vast topics individually, as one of the best IAS academies in Chennai, we at Kamaraj equip you with the right materials and practice to help you get a holistic understanding of these streams and not get overwhelmed by their depth.
Environment and Geography are also a part of the UPSC Mains Syllabus (GS III) and come in the IAS Mains Essay paper as well. In the field of geography, questions typically relate to the physical geography of India and the world, flora and fauna, agriculture, and technologies related to it. As for Environment, questions mostly relate to biodiversity, climate change, institutions, acts, and policies related to the environment.
