Associate in Arts for Transfer in Geography

Program Overview

All fields of geography — from physical to human to geographic techniques, including geospatial studies and analysis — have been experiencing remarkable renaissance and growth that has accelerated during the last several years. Additionally, there is a growing need for professionals in environmental and urban studies to analyze and solve the spatially related problems that confront us. Geospatial technologies consistently rank among the top 10 growth industries of this century according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Modern geographers around our nation and our world are helping solve problems ranging from natural resource distribution to urban planning, from natural hazards preparedness to climate change adaptation and mitigation.

Our range of geography courses at SMC provides excellent opportunities for students to build geographic knowledge and skills that can be used in many different fields and disciplines. They also lead our students into geography and related programs at the top universities, including numerous leading California universities.
