Courses that can be taken as electives by interested students from other programs

Most of the courses offered by the Discipline of Geography and Environmental Studies can serve as complementary electives for students in other programs. Students studying economics, education, engineering, law, philosophy, politics, and sociology frequently take our courses as electives. Students should check the assumed knowledge advice before enrolling.

Suggested PATHWAYS

Some Suggested PATHWAYS documents have been developed to give an indication of sets of courses meeting program requirements that will prepare students for particular careers. They are not the only sets of courses that will take students to the same careers, and they are not the only careers these sets of courses will prepare students for.

Pathways and program checklists specifically for the Geography major in the Bachelor of Science are listed below. We will be expanding this to cover other programs, however if you would like similar information in the interim your Program Convenor is here to help.
