Geography and Minor in Geography

The geography curriculum exposes students to a range of disciplines and provides a basis for careers dealing with the crucial problems facing both the world of today and the world of tomorrow. A background in geography provides broad-based opportunities in such diverse fields as urban environmental management and planning, government administration, earth sciences, international studies, geographical information systems, and world economics. Students may earn a minor in geography by completing five geography or geology courses to total at least 15 semester hours. Students who have transferred three or more geography or geology courses may earn a minor in geography by completing at least two geography courses at Roosevelt University. Students must complete all courses counted towards the geography minor with a grade of C or higher.
