Major Spotlight - Geography
|
 Geography is the study of the interconnectedness of people, the physical environment, politics, globalization, governance, and the economy. Geographers are concerned with how people and the environment interact with and change one another. Students can earn either a BA or BS degree in Geography, or choose from three minors in Atmospheric Sciences, Geographic Information Science and Geography. There are five different specializations within Geography: Environment & Society, Urban, Regional, & Global Studies, Climatic Studies, Physical Geography, and Spatial Analysis. Students graduating with a geography degree can pursue graduate study or start a career in a variety of different fields, including city planning, development, logistical analysis, environmental protection and conservation, governmental policy, international security, and global aid and relief. Contact an advisor.
