The Geography Department offers several classes each semester of interest to both Geography majors and students from other disciplines seeking to supplement their degree program

GEOG342: Introduction to Biogeography
This class has been extensively revised and is taught in a self-paced program, with few lectures and personal meetings with the instructors every other week. Biogeography is the study of the spatial relationships between living organisms - animals, plants and microbes - and their environment. As the impact of humans on the Earth's surface intensifies and extends we have become aware of the critical role played by living organisms in all aspects of global habitability. These topics are now at the forefront of public policy, including such issues as global warming, conservation of biodiversity, sustainability of harvested resources such as fish and lumber, the spread of pests and diseases, and appropriate farming practices that do not pollute or otherwise damage the environment.

Geog 475: Computer Cartography
Maps present ideas- make them present your ideas! 
Geog 475 will cover the fundamentals of cartography, the process of making a map.  This includes a variety of skills, including page design, color & font use, selecting an appropriate projection and categorizing and symbolizing data.  We'll show you how easy it is to start making your own paper & online maps!
