BSc Geography
Program Details
This program builds your understanding of the interactions between Earth’s atmosphere, lithosphere (crust and upper mantle), hydrosphere (total amount of water) and the biosphere. You’ll discover how the planet's oceans, rivers, lakes, mountains, glaciers, forests, ecosystems, and weather and climate are interconnected.
The Geography (BSc) degree program focuses on geography as an earth science. Foundational courses in your first two years include biology, physics, chemistry, math, and coding.
In the third and fourth years, you’ll take courses on weather and climate, snow and ice, mountains, hydrology, geomorphology, soils and weathering, and geomatics. Electives in anthropology, environmental science, and natural resources management provide breadth and flexibility for students to follow their interests.
Field schools in southern California and British Columbia provide you with hands-on experience and the opportunity to apply your knowledge and skills in a wide variety of outstanding natural environments.
