Geography

Geography offerings provide transfer science credits to science majors, science requirements, and electives toward graduation with an Associate degree in Arts and Sciences and personal interest opportunities for the community. The current geography courses explore relationships between Earth's natural environments, including the atmosphere, solid earth, oceans and streams, and between the environment and humans. Course offerings also include in-depth study of the atmosphere, including meteorology. The courses promote extensive skill building opportunities in communication through the spoken and written word, skills in the use of technology as a learning/research tool, and emphasis on critical thinking skills.
