GEOS 250 - World Regional Geography

Institution:

Denison University

Subject:

Description:

Modern geography explores the complex linkages between the natural world and the human or "built" environment. In this course, we study these relationships from a regional viewpoint. Excluding Anglo America, we tour the world's regions examining the diversity of landscapes, the distributions of natural resources, and the patterns of agricultural land use and industrial development. From London to Lhasa we chart the growing interdependence of the world economy and the stark contrasts in resource availability and allocation between the developed and less-developed nations. This course provides a fundamental understanding of people's material relationships with each other and the Earth.(4 credits)
