Graduate Courses
Courses in the graduate program are designed so that students may develop a general background in geographic theory, substantial depth in their areas of research specialization, and the technical and methodological skills necessary for research. A major portion of graduate course work consists of seminars and individual research courses in which students work closely with faculty members. The program also includes a set of three core courses which students are generally required to complete in the early stages of their program. "Research Problems in Geography I" (G500) introduces students to the history of the discipline, to the problems of carrying out research, and requires that students identify their own research area. The second course in the core program "Research Problems in Geography II" (G501), requires students to prepare a research proposal for advanced study at the M.A./M.S./Ph.D. level. The final course in the core program is "Advanced Quantitative Methods in Geography" (G504), which prepares students to use spatial statistics in their research.
