What it is	Geographic Analysis combines the study of human societies, physical environments, and data systems to understand how places work and change. Unlike a traditional geography program, this one emphasizes using computers and information technology to analyze spatial problems. It suits students interested in how people interact with their environment who also want practical technical skills.	You study the science and management of forests, learning about tree biology, ecosystem health, soil, and sustainable harvesting practices. The co-op option lets you work for forestry companies or government agencies during your degree, giving you real workplace experience alongside your coursework. This program suits students who want hands-on work with forests and ecosystems rather than purely classroom-based environmental study.	This program combines the study of how cities and human communities interact with natural systems, drawing on environmental science, geography, and social perspectives. You'll examine urban planning, resource use, climate impacts, and sustainability solutions across both natural and human dimensions. The co-op option lets you work in government, nonprofits, or consulting firms while you study, which suits people who want practical experience alongside classroom learning.
