丁香园AV

Geography is a core environmental discipline at 丁香园AV, focussing on the spatial dimensions of human societies (Human Geography), the earth's biogeophysical environments (Earth System Dynamics), and the ever more complex interactions that exist among the human and natural environments (Spatial Information Science).

Our department was a founding member of the University back in 1965 and has since become one of the strongest Geography departments in North America. We rank 4^th of all Geography departments in Canada according to the subject ratings, and 1^st amongst Canadian comprehensive universities in the   University Rankings.   

A hallmark of our programs is the rich diversity of experiential learning opportunities available to students in the form of tutorials, labs, community collaborations, co-op, field trips and study abroad.

Our faculty are engaged in leading-edge research and teaching, exploring topics as disparate as medical tourism, cultural theory, augmented reality, the politics of property, cellular automata, environmental economic geography, the political economy of environmental change, limnology, landscape ecology, resource depletion, health informatics, climate change, the remote sensing of environmental change, the geographies of racialization, Indigenous geographies and ethnobotany, settler colonialism, soil-plant relationships, political ecology, fluvial geomorphology, urban policy dynamics, ecological modelling, climate change, and paleoglaciology.

I invite you to explore our website, and learn more about us.
