World Regional Geography

Catalog description

World regional geography is an introductory examination of the major cultural realms of the world areas which share similar cultural and economic conditions. The physical environment and human impact on that environment will also be studied for each region. Units of study may include: Anglo-America, Europe, Russia and her neighbors, sub-Saharan Africa, North Africa/Southwest Asia, Monsoon Asia, East Asia, and middle and South America. Emphasis will be placed on spatial thinking and global interconnectedness. A previous course in physical or human geography would be helpful, but is not mandatory.
