Extractions: Geography is the study of the earth as the home of humanity. Geography provides a broad understanding of the processes that unite people, places and environments. Geographers explore the diverse regions of the contemporary world in pursuit of global understanding. They tie together the study of human spatial organizations and cultural landscapes with an in-depth investigation of the earths landforms, climates and vegetation. Their methods range from fieldwork in foreign areas to advanced information technologies like computerized geographic information systems. Geography graduates find rewarding careers in environmental analysis and planning, business, government agencies and education. International Learning Opportunities in Geography The Department of Geography is strongly committed to providing students with an international perspective. Geography 100 Global Geography offers a broad overview of the major countries and regions of the earth. Upper-division courses in Latin America (Geography 333), Europe (Geography 336), Asia (Geography 340) and Africa (Geography 344) offer an opportunity for in-depth study of specific regions. Finally, many other courses (Geography 120 Global Environmental Problems and Geography 360 Geography of the Worlds Economics, for example), include a strong international emphasis. In recent years, members of the geography faculty have conducted fieldwork in Asia, South America and Europe.

He came to power in a violent coup that deposed Salvador Allende , a Marxist physician who had become the first Socialist to be elected President of Chile . The coup ended a period of strained relations between the United States âwhich had actively sought Allende's removalâand the South American country, and allowed Pinochet to implement profound neoliberal economic reforms and, at the same time, to commit extensive human rights violations , both at home and abroad.

Email Text: Smaller Larger GEOGRAPHY (GEG) Mark Bjelland , Chairperson Robert Moline Geography is a synthesizing discipline that seeks an integrated understanding of the earth. Geography shares with other social sciences a concern for the human condition and shares with the natural sciences an interest in physical phenomenon at the earth's surface: climate, landforms, hydrology, and biomes. What distinguishes geography from other disciplines is not so much the problems it explores, but rather the way in which it examines them. Geography asks these fundamental questions: Why are things arranged the way they are in the landscape? How do these patterns change over time? What underlying processes are responsible for those patterns? Geography is particularly relevant to understanding global and regional contexts, relations between society and nature, and to resolving community issues. The department actively encourages student/faculty research, internships, travel courses, and study abroad. Students have presented research and done internships throughout the United States. Geography students have recently studied in Australia, China, Costa Rica, England, Greece, Italy, Scotland, and Spain. Geographers have many vocational opportunities in urban and regional planning, architecture, environmental management, community development, geo-demographic analysis for business or government, cartography, geographic information systems, education, and foreign service.
