Bachelor of Arts with Major in Geography (3-year)

About this programme

The three-year Bachelor of Arts with a major in Geography provides a breadth of exposure to the humanities, sciences, and social sciences, and includes significant depth in Geography. This degree prepares students well for many areas of employment or vocation with valuable skills—communication, writing, analytical, critical thinking, and organizing. A three-year B.A. in Geography also serves as a sound basis for launching into professional studies such as education, law, and so on. The minor requires only 18 credit hours and can fit alongside a major in any field, whether in the three-year or the four-year Bachelor of Arts. The student is given the opportunity to gain a broad understanding of geography through the required survey courses, and then may explore a variety of topics according to their interest. Through a minor in Geography, a student can gain valuable secondary competencies that demonstrate a particular interest in geographic and environmental aspects of other disciplines, such as International Development and Politics.
