OVERVIEW OF THE GEOGRAPHY PROGRAM
The Geography Program strives to create an environment in which the students are challenged to promote their own intellectual, social and personal development. Course offerings, which can lead to a minor in geography, are designed to develop many worthwhile concepts, skills and attitudes. Students learn the manner in which people from different parts of the world make use of their natural/cultural environments as well as how life and events in different parts of the world interrelate with one another.
EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES FOR GEOGRAPHY MINORS
A background in geography is appropriate for possible careers in education, agriculture, industry, government, business, community planning, and military service.
