BS Geography-Spatial Techniques Concentration
The Department of Earth, Environmental and Sustainability Sciences offers a suite of four undergraduate majors. The Geography Bachelor of Science (B.S.) program focuses on the study of spatial distributions, relations, processes and outcomes within the human-environment system. Attention is centered on historical and contemporary human activities in the natural and built environment, and on people as the major physical, social, cultural and economic change agents across the Earth’s surface. A curriculum in Geography helps students understand the world’s physical, social, economic and cultural landscapes and how they have been transformed or altered by either the Earth’s natural processes or human modifications, and the future sustainability of our current actions in the light of our past experiences and ongoing trends such as urbanization, globalization and climate change.
