Welcome
Understand our world! Our programs provide you with a holistic and multi-faceted understanding of our world, and the issues our environment, people and planet face today. You’ll come out of our programs with the knowledge and hands-on skills that will make you highly employable.
We ensure you have the most useful learning experience through classes that provided computer-based geographical analysis skills and fieldwork experience in addition to conventional lectures. Learn to use technologies such as cartography and geomatics to solve geographical questions, and gain unforgettable field experience in Ottawa's backyard, Canada’s north and around the globe.
We also provide several options to enhance your learning experience such as the CO-OP program, where you get four paid internships and come out of your degree with real work experience, making you much more employable and giving you a big head start on your career.
