Geographical Analysis

Understanding the complex connections people have with their natural and built environments and the ability to synthesize these connections is the focus of geographers. This understanding is helped using state-of-the-art technology in geographic information systems (GIS) to provide real-world solutions to issues surrounding urban growth, poverty, health, economic development, deforestation, pollution, climate change or environmental remediation. Training in geotechnology and expertise in one or several areas of geographical study make graduates of the program well-rounded academics, ready for the professional workplace.
