About This Minor

The undergraduate Minor in Geography introduces you to a broad range of concepts in areas such as sustainability and human-environment systems; energy policy; global warming; cartography, remote sensing, and geographic information systems; and geopolitics.

The courses are designed to provide you with a basic understanding of how geography can be used to describe, analyze, and explain the arrangement of human and physical features on Earth’s surface. This can help you to understand how and why people use environmental resources the way that they do.
