Program details
Overview
This program leads to a Maitre en sciences geographiques (M.Sc. geogr.) with a specialization in applied geography, totalling 45 credits over an estimated two years of full-time study. It trains students to analyze and address problems across specialized fields of human or physical geography, with an emphasis on practical training through fieldwork, laboratory work, internships, or an essay. Admission is offered in the fall, winter, and summer terms. The program is designed for students seeking applied, professionally oriented geographic training rather than a thesis-based research path. Reading proficiency in French or English is required, since the program's coursework and materials draw on texts in both languages. Graduates are prepared for applied roles in fields such as land-use planning, environmental analysis, and geospatial problem-solving.
