Geography combines aspects of natural and social sciences to analyze
processes that influence, and to resolve problems that arise from,
human use or modification of natural and built environments. Offered in
cooperation with the Department of Geography (Faculty of Arts and
Sciences), the program provides skills for direct entry to jobs in
public agencies and private firms concerned with a wide range of
environmental and social research, planning, development, and
management activities.
The program in geography has no formal
options, but students are strongly encouraged to select electives from
one of the following areas of emphasis: environmental systems and
global change, environment and society, urban and international
restructuring.
