Program Overview

Geography is the science of place and space, standing at the intersection of natural and social sciences. Geographers study the Earth's landscapes, peoples, places and environments, and how these interact. Understanding contemporary urban and environmental problems requires an appreciation of the interdependence between human activities and the natural and cultural environment. The Geographical Sciences major provides you with these insights, focusing on the major challenges facing our planet including population growth, urban expansion and megacities, natural disasters, environmental conservation and climate change. Your degree provides you with the opportunity to participate in exciting field trips to a range of domestic and international locations, with recent overseas destinations including Bali, Barcelona and Seattle.
