New Year, New Followers 🌍 Allow us to (re)introduce ourselves!

UGA Geography is a community of critical thinkers, problem solvers, and truth seekers concerned with the scholarship of earth's landscapes and our relationships to the environment.

Our mission is to advance understanding of social and natural processes in a complex and changing world.

As geographers, we are interested in where things happen, how people and places near and far are interconnected, and the impact of humans on the landscape and environment. Our undergraduate and graduate programs cultivate geographical curiosity, critical thinking, and a rich array of methods for solving real-world problems.

We support instruction and research in climate studies, atmospheric sciences, landforms, biodiversity, geoarchaeology, environmental change, geographic information science, remote sensing, urban processes, dynamics of the global economy, food systems, and social movements, such as those for food, climate and racial justice.

As a community, we seek to understand how the world works and to contribute to the conditions for a more just and sustainable future.

No better reason to welcome former students back to the Geography-Geology building than Homecoming Week!

Last week, Atmospheric Sciences alumni, faculty, and students came together for a Homecoming Event. It was a great opportunity for former students to meet current students and faculty, network, and catch up. Thank you to everyone who came! by @geographyuga

A degree from Geography can open many doors!

Yesterday, we hosted a Geography and Atmospheric Sciences Undergraduate Summer Internship Panel where students had the opportunity to share about their summer internships and answer questions from their peers.

Happy Tuesday! GUSTO invites you to our kickoff event of the fall semester, a hike through Ben Burton park! We’ll meet at 10:30am this Saturday (9/19) and walk the easygoing ~1 mile trail along the river while enjoying the nice weather and cooling down with some free popsicles. Carpooling is available and can be coordinated in the GroupMe. See you there! 🌎 taken in Ben Burton Park by @geographyuga

Another August of Shell to Shore means another new cohort of Interns poised to become the next generation of coastal restoration stewards! If you see our new crew trucking around the state picking up your favorite restaurant’s recycled shells, please feel free to honk and wave!

Thanks to our fearless Director of Operations, @mprov1, who always keeps things fun in each semester’s orientation! And, as always, thanks to @rinneallen for capturing our work along the way!

15 straight semesters of interns and the loud oyster shell recycling drum beats on and on! by @geographyuga
