This program is ideal for those who wish to combine social science, humanities, and physical science approaches to analyse and address pressing global challenges.
This full-time, on-campus undergraduate program is structured over four years, beginning with foundational core courses in your first year that build essential academic and field skills. You will engage in hands-on learning through field studies, research projects, and opportunities for international exchange, such as the Semester Abroad at the Las Nubes EcoCampus in Costa Rica. You will graduate with a deep understanding of geomatics, urban environmental justice, and critical geographies, prepared for careers in government, international development, and environmental consulting.
