The Geography Department provides instruction and research in the broad discipline of geography, studying how physical, biological, and cultural processes shape the landscape in which we live and cause regions to differ from each other. We provide six different degree programs, an internationally known research agenda, and a long tradition of service and outreach in education and climatic data services.
