About
I'm Pulak Barman (বাংলা: পুলক বর্মন), an enthusiastic learner and inquiring mind with an insatiable desire to learn and a relentless spirit of exploration. Currently, I am a PhD Research Scholar (UGC-Junior Research Fellow) at Department of Geography, School of Environment and Earth Sciences, Central University of Punjab. Recently, I completed ICSSR sponsored project at the Department of Geography, University of Calcutta. I have cleared UGC-NET JRF in Geography (June 2023 cycle) as well as WB-SET 2022. Additionally, I have qualified for the Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE) 2026 in Geomatics Engineering (GE). I have completed my master's degree in geography from Department of Geography, University of Calcutta, and also completed my Bachelor's degree (Hons.) in geography from ABN Seal College affiliated to Cooch Behar Panchanan Burma University. I am keenly interested in geospatial analysis, geospatial modelling, application of ML & Geo-AI in urban studies, and sustainable urban studies. I have little knowledge of software, including ArcMap, ArcView, Erdas Imagine, QGIS, SPSS, GeoDa, SNAP, Python programming, R techniques, and GEE.
