In Geography and Environment we are interested in the world we live in and how that world is changing. It's an education for life and for living as informed and responsible citizens.

We are home to faculty and students whose focus is the study of places and the relationships between people and their environments. We examine how human culture interacts with the natural environment and the way that locations and places can have an impact on people. As a discipline Geography uniquely bridges the social sciences with the natural sciences and is inherently environmental in its approach.

We have four areas of research focus: Environment Development and Health, Geographic Information Science (GISci), Physical Geography and Urban Studies. These form the basis for our graduate programs that lead to PhD and Masters (both MA and MSc) degrees as well as for our undergraduate modules and courses. We are also home to a number of faculty who teach in the Indigenous Studies Program.
