Florida State University Department of Geography

Florida State Geography is a hub for the spatially inquisitive. Whether it is understanding the roles of climate in shifting species distributions, deconstructing the processes that shape the growth and development of cities, using computational models to recommend where disaster relief is needed, unveiling social inequities through trends in municipal bonds, exploring the interactions of people and their dependence on aquatic habitats, or building technical skills through the implementation of remote sensing, programming, and Geographic Information Systems, our faculty and students dive into a myriad of subjects touching numerous corners of our world. These are only a few of the areas our department’s talent pursues.
