项目概述
The 地理Bachelor of Science major affords students flexibility in designing a curriculum that combines the traditions of physical and human geography with analytical and technical skills. Unlike the Bachelor of Arts program in 地理位置, the B.S. degree requires a concentration in Physical/Geospatial courses.
Geographers are interested in the spatial patterns observed on Earth. 连接自然科学和社会科学, geography is the interdisciplinary study of environments and how people interact with the environment. It is important to study geography because many of the world's problems require understanding the interdependence between human activities and the environment. 地理位置 is therefore a beneficial major for students because its theories and methods provide them with analytical skills relevant to occupations focused on solving social and environmental problems. The 地理位置 Department offers eight majors that help students tailor their focus of study. The 地理Bachelor of Science major affords students flexibility in designing a curriculum that combines the traditions of physical and human geography with analytical and technical skills.
The department is committed to excellence in both teaching and advising. Several faculty members have received teaching awards, and faculty are known across campus for the quality of their advising. 作为地理专业的学生, students meet one-on-one with their faculty adviser every semester during advising week, and they are always welcome to talk with their adviser at any time throughout the semester whenever questions may arise. In addition to advising students about their academic programs, the department provides timely information about internships, 全国竞争奖项, 以及其他出现的机会. 许多学生完成实习, and several over the last few years have received 全国竞争奖项.
