Geography-Earth Science at Shippensburg University

We offer students excellent undergraduate and graduate programs of study in geography, earth sciences, sustainability, and the mapping sciences. Our programs are designed to give students an appreciation of the natural and human environments of the earth, how they are coupled, and how they interact. Our students develop skills in collecting, recording, and analyzing geoenvironmental data. They become involved in laboratory work, field investigations, and environmental exercises that help students sharpen their critical-thinking and technological skills and to arrive at solutions based on evidence and inductive reasoning.
