Overview

Geography is commonly divided between human geography and physical geography and encompasses the study of the surface of the earth, its landscapes, its feature, and the like.  Geography is the bridge between the human and physical sciences while looking at the spatial connection between people, places and the earth.

 

Companies are recognizing the skill that a geographically-trained individual brings as they work as planners, cartographers (map makers), GIS specialists, analysts, scientists, researchers and in many other positions. To view resources on careers offered by the UW, click here.

 

Transfer Degree: Associate of Arts Degree General Transfer A

Designed to provide students with a broad liberal arts background of study during their first and second years of college with an emphasis on geography. The state's two-year and four-year schools developed transfer agreements that allow students from a community college to transfer at least 90 credits (60 semester credits) to a four-year college or university. The degrees satisfy some - or all - general requirements for a bachelor's degree.
