RESOURCES

The department has three graduate programs:

The M.A. in Geography is primarily focused on human geography, but students have also undertaken projects in geography education or environment and society.
The M.S. in Geography is focused on climatology, land-surface processes and cold regions research. In both masters programs, an important purpose is to learn research techniques, such as GIS, remote sensing, and spatial data handling.
The Ph.D. in Geography serves as the umbrella degree for advanced research over the entire field of physical geography and related geographic methods, and has been very successful in placing students in academic positions, as well as in research positions within government and the private sector.
