At Syracuse University, geographers study globalization, environmental change and history, mapping and spatial techniques, immigration, urban and cultural politics, social movements, and surface processes of the physical environment. As a major, geography gives you a range of skills AND a new perspective on the world. Because geographers research issues such as sustainable development, gender equity, and environmental change, geography provides tools not only to understand the world but also to change it! Geography is easy to pair with another major, such as international relations or biology, or a degree from another college, such as the Newhouse School of Public Communications or Smith College of Engineering and Computer Science. After graduation, geography students find jobs in emergency management, federal and state environmental agencies, GIS and cartography, urban planning, non-profit organizations, community and international development, teaching and research, journalism, real-estate analysis, environmental consulting, and other fields. The Geography Department also offers research opportunities for undergraduates. Our majors work with community groups to address concerns like hunger, youth resources, and public transportation. They complete senior theses on topics from political change in East Africa to water management in Central America. Finally, majors can take advantage of internships or study-abroad opportunities to obtain course credits while gaining valuable work and international experience. This track is focuses on Nature, Society, Sustainability.

One of the important factors when considering a master's degree is the cost of study. Luckily, there are many options available to help students fund their master's programme. Download your copy of the Scholarship Guide to find out which scholarships from around the world could be available to you, and how to apply for them.
Syracuse University is an international research university that provides students with an outstanding education built on teaching excellence, rigorous scholarship, global engagement, and collaborative research that drives discovery and advances knowledge. In the 2016-17 academic year, University physicists were among the global consortium of scientists to detect, for the first time, both sound and light from the collision of two neutron stars in deep space. They also were among that same team whose historic discovery of gravitational waves a year earlier would make global headlines and earn team leaders a 2017 Nobel Prize. The University continues to expand opportunities for students to engage in these and other research collaborations and this year has worked to identify key focus areas for research that align with, and tap into, multiple areas of disciplinary strength. The University also has a long legacy of commitment to diversity and inclusion across multiple dimensions, with minority students currently making up about 25 percent of current enrollment and international students making up about 19 percent. Global literacy is a major piece of the academic experience, and we foster this by offering a wide range of learning, research, and immersion opportunities around the world and by mindfully working to promote interaction and engagement among our internationally diverse student body here on campus. In the last year, the University assembled an Internationalization Council to expand global scholarship and engagement opportunities for students both on and off campus, and to further enhance and support the international student experience at Syracuse. Today, nearly 45 percent of students study abroad at one of the University’s own centers in Beijing, Florence, Hong Kong, London, Madrid, Santiago (Chile), and Strasbourg (France), or at other sites through partner organizations. Syracuse University also has long been a national leader in veteran-related programs and services, and it is building on that legacy with construction, now underway, of a National Veterans Resource Complex, scheduled to open in 2020. The University currently is home to such precedent-setting veterans’ initiatives as the Entrepreneurship Bootcamp for Veterans with Disabilities and the Institute for Veterans and Military Families—the first university-based institute in the U.S. focused on addressing unique issues and challenges affecting veterans and their families. Building on our longstanding strengths while evolving in light of emerging needs and opportunities, Syracuse continues to distinguish itself by offering multifaceted learning and research experiences that address urgent challenges and prepare students to make a difference in a constantly changing world.
Syracuse University is committed to ensuring that all students receive an education built on teaching excellence, rigorous scholarship, global engagement, and collaborative research that drives discovery and advances solutions to complex challenges of the day. The University continues to implement key aspects of its Academic Strategic Plan, including an expanded focus on collaborative research, internationalization, experiential and entrepreneurial experiences, and veteran-related scholarship and programs. Recent initiatives to advance these strategic goals include formation of a University-wide Internationalization Council to foster global engagement both on and off campus and help ensure that upon graduation, all students have the skills, experiences, and cultural knowledge needed to live, work, and thrive in a deeply interconnected world. Students can engage in one-of-a-kind off-campus learning and immersion experiences at Syracuse University study abroad centers on three continents as well as in such major metropolitan hubs as New York City, Washington D.C., Los Angeles, and Dubai. The University also continues to expand opportunities for collaborative research, particularly on issues and topics that align with, and tap into, multiple areas of disciplinary strength. Syracuse continues to strategically evolve in ways that meet emerging needs; generate substantive, innovative learning opportunities; and prepare students to thrive as they put their Syracuse education to work in a world that is constantly changing.
