We all live on this beautiful planet, experiencing its diverse cities and stunning landscapes. By studying Geography, you will gain a much deeper understanding of the world around you, learning about the natural world around us, as well as understanding how people and environments interact.
Geography is the scientific study of the land and the phenomena of the Earth and all its features and inhabitants. Environmental Studies takes a closer look at our interaction with the environment, with the aim of solving complex problems.
