Bachelor of Science [B.S] (Geography - General Geography Option)
Field of Study:
$19,048/Yr
Geography is the science of place and space ? the earth?s landscapes, peoples, places and environments. Geographers ask where things are located on the surface of the earth, why they are located where they are, how places differ from one another and how people interact with the environment. This is a discipline that bridges the social sciences and natural sciences and that the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics cites as a growing career field.
The Geography (BS) - General Geography degree provides you with a broad understanding of geography in a strong liberal arts context. It does not require a language, but rather 15 hours of ancillary courses to complete a concentration of your choosing.
You will be especially marketable in the field of geography when you also complete Appalachian?s undergraduate Certificate in Geographic Information Systems with just four additional courses. Many students choose to double major by pairing this degree with Sustainable Development.
