BA and BSc Programs
Trent School of the Environment offers BA and BSc programs in Geography. Students may earn a single-major or joint-major degree with a wide range of other University departments or programs. Students earning a degree with a major in another subject may also obtain a minor in Geography. The program has a strong emphasis on field-based learning and interdisciplinary study. Many courses are cross-listed with other departments and programs, including an Option in Geographical Information Systems linked with Fleming College. Students in the Honours program are encouraged to explore the thesis and community-based research options as valuable training for postgraduate studies and job-related experience.
