Bachelor of Arts in Geography- Human Dimensions of Climate Change

Bowling Green State University

Geography is the study of human activity, and the environment it takes place in, as it varies across space. Thus, geographers analyze the complex interactions that take place between people, culture, society, and place, and they investigate the impacts that people have on the natural world as well as our responses to environmental change caused by natural factors and human activity. Geographers create maps that illustrate these relationships by using geospatial analysis techniques and technologies (such as geographic information systems) that utilize a wide range of data that are either remotely sensed or collected at the earth’s surface. Because of the wide scope of geography, the discipline is strongly linked with fields in the social sciences, natural sciences, computing, and business.
