Geography

Students may choose to undertake either a thesis or non-thesis track. Generally, the equivalent of two years of full-time study is required to complete the program. A student may concentrate his or her studies in human geography (urban, transportation, planning, economic, political, cultural), physical/environmental geography (geomorphology, climatology, soils), geographic information technology (GIS, cartography, remote sensing), or geographic education. The Department has extensive laboratory facilities and field equipment for physical geography including soils/sediment analysis capabilities, and extensive global positioning systems (GPS) equipment. Computer facilities include state-of-the-art teaching and research laboratories operating ArcView, ArcInfo, ERDAS Imagine, S-Plus and other software packages. click here for more Info..
