As a geography major at Clark University, you will use the concepts of place and space to better understand the physical and social processes that shape our planet and to address societal and environmental challenges. In pursuing a bachelor of arts degree in geography, you will explore why places are different; the economic, political, and cultural systems that connect us locally, regionally, and globally; and how we shape \u2014 and in turn are shaped by \u2014 our environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
