The Department of Geography and Environment offers undergraduate concentrations in human geography, in physical geography, in environmental science, and in environmental analysis and policy.
Students who concentrate in geography receive basic training in a core group of courses followed by a choice of course sequences focusing on the specific concentration. The core courses build a foundation in traditional branches of the discipline, quantitative techniques, and remote sensing/geographic information systems (GIS) skills. Special emphasis in the department lies in four subfields within the discipline: (1) energy-environmental systems and resource analysis; (2) geography of development; (3) remote sensing and geographic information system; and (4) biogeography and climatology.
Graduating concentrators may find employment in urban and regional planning departments, firms consulting on environmental problems, industrial location and retail site planning, federal and state agencies including those using resource and environmental analysis, remote sensing and mapping, and policy analysis. In addition, students may pursue graduate studies in geography or other fields, such as land use, transportation planning, and environmental studies, as well as lay and environmental administration.
