What it isPhysical Geography and Geomatics is the study of Earth's natural systems — climate, landforms, water cycles, and ecosystems — combined with the tools and technology used to map and analyze landscapes and geographic data. You'll learn fieldwork skills alongside GIS software and remote sensing, which sets this apart from pure geology or human geography alone. It suits students who want to understand how the physical world works and are comfortable with both outdoor research and technical problem-solving.You study how cities and regions develop, grow, and change, combining geography, planning, politics, and social policy to understand urban and rural environments. This program emphasizes the interconnected nature of these topics rather than treating them as separate disciplines. Co-op work terms are available, letting you gain practical experience in planning offices, government agencies, or development organizations alongside your coursework.
