Please join us during the week of April 14-20 for PRACTICING GEOGRAPHY WEEK – a week full of career-focused events specifically for undergraduate students interested in Geography, Global Environmental Studies (GES), and Earth System Science (ESS)!
Practicing Geography week was developed to give our undergraduate students a chance to explore various career and graduate school options, while also gaining opportunities to network with some of our faculty, current graduate students, and alumni from our programs.
Each day of the week we will be hosting events that will be open to any undergraduate student interested in Geography, GES, or ESS. Please find the attached poster listing all of the events that will be taking place starting on Monday, April 14, ending with a weekend field trip to New York City!
