Bachelor of Arts in Geography - Geographic Information Science and Technology

University of Nebraska at Omaha

Geography is offered as a Bachelor of Arts in geography or a Bachelor of Science in geography. Students who wish more concentrated applications in geography may choose an optional concentration of either geographic information systems or travel and tourism. The specific course requirements for these concentrations may also be used to satisfy the major requirements. The geography major requires a minimum of 29 credit hours of geography at the 3000 level or higher. All 3000 level or higher courses taken in the Geography Fundamentals and Geography Diversity Requirements count toward this requirement. The Department offers both a Bachelor of Arts and a Bachelor of Science in Geography. We also offer concentrations in Geographic Information Systems and Travel & Tourism, and a Minor in Geography. The geography program at UNO prepares students for careers in urban and environmental planning, geographic information systems, cartography, remote sensing, and other areas of geographic research.
