Description
Many are surprised that colleges offer Geography as a major and that the discipline has an environmental emphasis. In short, geographic traditions have emphasized People, Places, and Environments. What is particularly valuable about studying the environment in a geography department is the breadth of environmental courses covered, and the emphasis on relationships that occur between sectors of the environment. For example, we might look at interrelationships between topography, soils, climate, ecology, and human activities to derive a holistic view of the environment.
