Geography has several traditions of study. Three of the most signicant are the study of relationships between humans and environment (human-environment interaction), the study of places (their characteristics and structure), and the study of spatial organization (the way people use and organize space on earth, and the distribution of natural phenomena on the earth's surface). All three traditions focus on understanding distributions of human and natural phenomena at global, regional and local scales, by building knowledge regarding the phenomena under investigation (for examples, cities, watersheds, business/industry location, habitats, cultural patterns, transportation, land use, resource management, the built environment, and energy production and use) and applying relevant methods and technologies (including geographic information systems (GIS), small unmanned aerial systems (sUAS), remote sensing, global positioning systems (GPS) and geovisualization) to analyze them. The Geography program is organized into three specializations to allow students to build knowledge and skills to pursue their interests and gain employment: Environment/Energy, Geospatial Information Science & Technology, and Human Geography.
