Geography is a multidisciplinary field as complex and interconnected as the world it studies. Geographers study people, places, the environment and history. Analyzing the world, they try to understand the events that led to present conditions and use that knowledge to shape the world and the future. If you like being outdoors, traveling and using technology to learn about the world and the environment, then the SVSU Geography program is for you. Combining scientific knowledge, critical thinking and the most advanced technology, students will translate classroom learning and applied research into professional practice. Students benefit from small class sizes and the valuable guidance of seven full-time faculty to help them achieve their educational and career goals. They can also take advantage of opportunities to travel and study abroad as well as present their work at conferences or gain valuable experience as an intern with a variety of government agencies and businesses. This diversified major prepares SVSU Geography graduates for successful careers in the multitude of fields and locations open to them.

In SVSU’s Geography program, students will study human geography (social sciences) and physical geography (earth sciences)—including Earth’s varied climates, environments and landforms. Students will develop specific skills like reading and interpreting maps and satellite images, and learn to evaluate global events from a geographical perspective. They will examine contemporary environmental issues addressing human impacts on air, water, land, soil, vegetation, animal species and natural resources. Topics include global climate change, energy types and use, water resources, air pollution, land cover change, landscape identity, hazardous waste, agriculture and food production, human population and sustainability. Additionally, students will discover how to translate classroom learning and applied research into professional practice with valuable hands-on training in Remote Sensing (RS) and Geographic Information Systems (GIS)—skills expected of entry-level employees in planning, mapping and natural resource agencies—setting SVSU students apart when entering their career.
