Learn what you can do with a degree from our Geography 和 可持续性 项目!
衔接自然科学与社会科学
The Department of 地理、地理信息系统、 和 可持续性 (DoGGS or GGS) includes the Geography 和 Geographic Information Science (GIS) 和 环境 和 可持续性 研究项目.
学生 in the Geography program study the environmental, cultural, political 和 economic processes that produce distinctive local, regional 和 global patterns across 地球表面. Geography is one of the few academic disciplines that bridge 自然科学和社会科学之间的差距. 地理学家分析复杂的相互作用 among these spatial processes create constantly changing human 和 natural l和scapes 世界各地.
学生 interested in 环境 和 可持续性 Studies will learn to underst和 和 address the significant challenges facing a growing human community dependent 博天堂官方网站有限资源. 环境 和 可持续性 Studies uses a dynamic approach that requires the study of multiple disciplines 和 perspectives to address human problems which require sophisticated underst和ing of interacting systems: natural, economic, historical, aesthetic, socio-cultural, spatial, 和 political.
学生 can elect to major in in 环境 和 可持续性 Studies or Geography with one of three emphasis areas: Geographic Information Sciences (GIS), Global 和 区域研究和中学教学. 辅修课程包括地理、地理信息系统和 环境研究.
