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 (School 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.
Students in the School of Environmental and Biological Sciences who
choose the geography degree program are required to also complete a
minor or certificate program offered by the faculty of the School of Environmental and Biological Sciences.
Effective for ALL NEW STUDENTS enrolling in the Rutgers School of Environmental and Biological Sciences beginning FALL 2015 the geography degree program will no longer be offered.
