Geography and Planning
Examine the relationship between people and the environment.
Department of Geography and Planning
We are driven by a shared purpose to use the tools of geography, geographic information science, urban planning, and sustainability to address pressing issues that impact our communities, our cities and our world.
Our students investigate how people and the environment interact on the Earth's surface, how cities are planned for a diversifying society, how forest fires can be addressed, how spatial data science is used to inform complex conservation efforts and so much more!
