The BA in Geography provides a well-rounded education with marketable skills to students with interests in the spatial patterns of society and the environment. It focuses on the interactions of humans with the natural and physical environments of Earth from a spatial perspective. Toward this end, the program鈥檚 graduates will have a fundamental understanding of human social dynamics and physical patterns and processes at the Earth鈥檚 surface, such as globalization, climatic variation and natural disasters, within the context of places, landscapes, and regions. Graduates will also be trained in the use of geospatial technologies as tools in addressing many modern concerns. The program is founded on the principle that geographical knowledge of place, space, and scale can provide essential insights into contemporary social and environmental issues and the variation in human cultures and behaviors, and promotes the idea that such insight is critical to managing the Earth at local, regional and global scales.
