An Urban and Regional Analysis concentration in the Department of Geography prepares students to identify and address a wide variety of economic and social problems related to population changes and migration, land use, urban environment, housing, work and welfare, health, and transportation within a geographical context. This curriculum focuses on the theoretical foundations of geographical analysis and urban environments, the use and interpretation of statistics, and the collection, processing, and interpretation of geospatial information.
