Bachelor [Geography] From Colgate University

Students are exposed to the full spectrum of disciplinary subfields ? physical, human, and nature-society geography as well as geographical techniques. They use integrative explanatory frameworks to grapple with critical areas of inquiry: the geopolitics of conflict, climate science, biogeographies of endangered species, public health, urban planning, disaster mitigation, international development, environmental and social justice, and natural resource management, among them. In exploring these themes, geography students move beyond passive knowledge consumption and towards the production of knowledge themselves, applying their skills and perspectives through collaborative work with faculty, fellow students, and members of the wider community.
