Uraian Tempat

The Department of Geography and Urban Planning offers majors in two separate, though closely related, areas: geography and urban studies. These fields are more important than ever before. They provide a window upon a world made smaller by advances in telecommunications and transportation technology, by the integrated operations of multinational corporations like Intel and Toyota, by the threat of international terrorism and by environmental hazards like global warming. Geography and urban studies enable to better understand the interaction between these global forces and local places. The skills and knowledge that students in these fields acquire are practical and valued both at the global scale and at the local scale. The mission of the Department of Geography and Urban Planning is to provide students with an understanding of the elements that influence the social and physical environment at the local and global scale.
