Because our world is immersed in the Information Age and we have entered a period in human history marked by increasing globalization, it is important for students to be geographically literate. The Geography Program is designed to expand students’ knowledge about the physical and cultural environments of the world and prepare them for a career in the global market.
Career Options
Students transferring into a college or university geography curriculum can prepare for diverse careers in urban planning, petroleum exploration, cartography (mapping), and corporate planning for expansion and development. Many universities require education majors to take a geography course as part of their degree.
