About This Programme

Physical geographers' ability to analyze and integrate aspects of the Earth's physical and human environments makes them attractive for a variety of jobs. The training in computer-based cartography, remote sensing, and the use of geographic information systems that geospatial analysis graduates receive is especially valuable as this tech is a major growth area in all areas of professional geosciences. The Geosciences department prepares students to excel in earth- and environment-related careers in public service, the private sector, and education. Job demand is high with the prevalence of long-term issues such as climate change, dwindling natural resources, transitioning to renewable energy supplies, and hazard mitigation.

Career Path

The global demand for geoscientists in areas such as environmental consulting, renewable energy, mining, and the rapidly expanding field of geographic information systems (GIS) far exceeds the current supply. Graduates often go on to earn master’s and doctoral degrees at some of the nation’s most prestigious research universities or work in geoscience-related professions such as park service, science journalism, and science education.
