History of the Department
Admitting 35 students for the BA program of Teaching Geography as its first round of students, the department of Geography of RU was established in 1993 to accommodate the needs of Kermanshah province and western regions of Iran for experts in Geography, especially those as school Geography teachers. After two years and with changes in the staff recruitment policies in the Ministry of Education as well as the dire need of Kermanshah province for Land-use Planning along with the existence of environmental threats, this department launched the BSc program in Pure Geography-Geomorphology in 1995 and Climatology (evening courses) subsequently in 1996. The graduate programs of the department began to form by MSc in Geomorphology in 1997, leading up to the establishment of MSc programs in Climatology in the subsequent year. The department, then, began to offer MSc programs in Geography-Rural Planning in 2008. The doctorate's programs of Geomorphology and Climatology were first offered in 2011.

Educational and Research Labs of the Department
GIS Workshop
This laboratory is used for scientific research and analyses, management of civil services, management of resources and supplies, as well as developmental plannings. The GIS Technology provides information for developing maps by collecting and merging information, visualizing and using geographic analyses.
Climatic Threats and Dust Control
This laboratory is used for implementing climatic models.
The Geomorphology Laboratory
The Hydrogeomorphology is designed for measuring the characteristics of the rivers which are not measurable on the ground such as sediments granulometry, morphoscopic characteristics of sediments, the analysis of characteristics of rivers flowing on the ground such as river discharge, river sediment, and forms of river beds erosion.
