Welcome to a wide-ranging Department with degrees offered under six titles: Geography, Environmental Science, Environmental Studies, Climatology, Land-Surface Processes, and Geography Education. Our degrees range from undergraduate minors through the PhD, and we also provide the University and region instruction in Geographic Information Science, including an innovative program leading to a graduate certification in GIS.
We take pride in quality of teaching as well as excellence in research. As a component of the College of Earth, Ocean, and Environment, we emphasize hands-on field work, with research locations from the Arctic to Guatemala, as well as in the forests, streams, beaches, and human landscapes of the mid-Atlantic. Please look over our site and feel free to contact the Department for further information.
