Geography at the University of Texas

 

Geographers study the interactions between people and their natural and built environments. Geographical concerns range in scale from urban spaces and movement patterns to global environmental systems. By incorporating a strong comparative and international bent, geographers situate both teaching and research in an interregional and global context. The UT Department of Geography and the Environment is a nationally-recognized leader in the study of historical transformations in landscapes and associated changes in human-environment relations.

The Department of Geography and the Environment is located in the Geography Building, at the corner of 24th St. and Whitis. For more information on the department, its people, programs and research, please browse this website, or contact us at
