Program Description
Some of the greatest challenges facing us involve our environment, and how it changes the world around us. Not a day goes by that we are not confronted with an issue that involves the environment. These include water, hazards, pollution, climate change, urban issues, health, energy, and communities, to name a few. These issues not only affect our lives, but the Geography of our world as well. As our climate changes and populations increase, the physical and human geography of the planet is constantly changing. Our Department aims to provide students with a greater awareness of issues involving environment and geography, and to conduct forefront research on a host of associated issues. We are unique in Canada. Nowhere else has the wide diversity of expertise been brought together under one Departmental umbrella. This is a pioneering effort that will be emulated elsewhere. Come share the adventure with us.
