  • Geography

    Geography is the science of place, space, and environment. It is an interdisciplinary field investigating topics of environmental and social significance through data collection, use of computer-based tools, and field studies. A geography minor complements majors in agricultural sciences, business, environmental sciences, geology, health sciences, international studies, journalism, social sciences, and travel and tourism.
