Geography is concerned with the spatial or locational dimensions of environmental phenomena and organizational patterns of human activity on the earth's surface. In practice, geography deals with the analysis of topics ranging from environmental problems, political boundary disputes, and ethnic conflict to applied and more localized issues such as establishing new voting districts to provide better representation for ethnic minorities, determining where the next freeway link should be built, assessing the location of oil pipelines, or various matters regarding urban planning and governance. Traditionally, geographers have regional expertise combining topical and geographic fields of knowledge: for example, population issues in the Caribbean, sustainable development in the Amazon Basin, economic and political integration in Europe, territorial conflict in the Middle East, or the growth of megacities in South Asia. Geographers are prepared for positions in teaching, government, private business, urban and regional planning, and geographic information systems (GIS), remote sensing (RS), resource management, and environmental analysis.
