Geography Minor


Geography is the study of the physical world, its inhabitants, the interaction between the two, and the patterns and systems involved. It is the study of relationships between humans and their environment by emphasizing a spatial and environmental perspective at a variety of scales.

A minor in geography is a natural complement to an array of careers, including engineering, government and international politics, environmental science, transportation, business, marketing, and public health. Any Mason undergraduate student is eligible to earn a minor in geography, and many of the required courses also complete general education requirements.
