Why Employers Hire Geography Grads

By Clarke Thomson

Students in the discipline of Geography are specialists in analyzing spatial patterns of human or physical activities.  In addition the students are exposed to a wide range of human and physical activities and are more aware than most of human and/or physical interactions on earth.  Geography students are also very adept at researching and understanding environmental situations and interactions,  whether they are physical or human.

Clarke Thomson, Professor (Retired), Department of Geography, Brock University, and 3M National Teaching Fellow.
