在这里学什么？

• What would an agreement on reducing greenhouse gas emissions that's fair to all countries look like?
• Why is the USA's population growing, and is that a bad thing?
• Why might Native Americans clash with the Forest Service over conserving nature, and how could the conflict be resolved?

These are the types of questions you might examine in the Global Studies program as you study how human societies are organized, and how they relate to the natural environment.

WHY CHOOSE GEOGRAPHY: GLOBAL STUDIES?

Numerous opportunities for field excursions to places like Yellowstone National Park, Newfoundland, or even China will broaden your knowledge of our world.
