Bachelor of Science - Geography - Geographic Information Science and Technology

As the human impact on the environment continues to grow, so does the need for trained professionals in environmental fields that integrate the biological, physical, and earth sciences. Students gain hands-on learning experiences both in and out of the classroom, especially in the form of student-faculty research collaborations or faculty-supervised research projects. They also conduct cutting-edge research in environmental studies, geography, marine science and science education. 

The B.A. in Geography allows for maximum flexibility for Southern Connecticut State University students to explore other coursework in the context of a liberal arts education. They encourage students to supplement their BA in Geography with the completion of a minor (by advisement) which will allow students to apply disciplinary skills (e.g., multi-scalar analysis, geographical thinking, etc.) in an interdisciplinary context.
