As an introduction to geography, this course is designed to provide an overview of the different branches of geographic inquiry and thought to assist students in developing a critical awareness of the dynamic world in which we live, as well as to begin asking questions that seek to understand the spatial relationships between people, places and the environment. This course considers how the key concepts of place and space can be used to understand the special character and interactions of history, culture, economics, and the environment and will attempt to engage students’ broad interests through the lens of geographical thinking and analysis.
