Geography and Earth Sciences majors and minors

The Department of Geography and Earth Sciences offers three dynamic, future-focused majors: Geography, Environmental Science, and Geospatial Science. Each major is designed to challenge and inspire the next generation of Army leaders and global problem-solvers. Within each major, Cadets take a blend of required and flexible electives courses, with the opportunity to pursue an Honors track. Our majors explore the essential disciplines of geography, environmental science, and geospatial science?fields that are vital to military operations, national security, and global decision-making. You?ll gain real-world knowledge through hands-on learning experiences that are relevant and applicable to any military career path. At the heart of our programs is a shared mission: to help Cadets understand how people interact with their environment and how that knowledge can be used to make smarter, more effective decisions. Whether you're analyzing terrain, studying cultures, managing natural resources, or interpreting satellite imagery, you will graduate equipped to lead in a complex and rapidly changing world.
