The PhD in Geography is offered by the Department of Geography in the Faculty of Science and is a research-intensive doctoral program that trains students in original research, literature synthesis and scientific communication for careers in academia or industry. The department's core research areas include political, urban, economic and health geography, environment and development, geographic information systems and remote sensing, land surface processes, ecosystem biogeochemistry, earth system science and sustainability science. Students may also pursue a Gender and Women's Studies option or a Neotropical Environment option, the latter based in Latin America with courses taught in Panama. Admission requires an eligible bachelor's degree with a minimum 3.0 GPA on a 4.0 scale; the department does not admit students directly into the PhD without a master's degree, though a fast-track transfer from the MA or MSc is possible after strong first-year performance. Students are typically admitted only with confirmed funding from a supervisor or an external agency. The program admits students for the Fall term.
