The Doctor of Philosophy in Geography at the University of Saskatchewan is a thesis-based program exploring both human and physical geography, built around understanding people, places, and environments. Students engage in research addressing regional, Canadian, and global challenges in areas such as environmental studies, policy, management, and assessment; geographic information science and remote sensing; hydrological and ecohydrological processes and modelling; landscape analysis and environmental change; regional and urban planning; and Indigenous and health studies. The Department of Geography and Planning, active since 1963, supports fieldwork across Canada and internationally, with well-instrumented sites in the Canadian North and the Rockies, alongside graduate offices, laboratories, and research space for both social and natural sciences. Applicants are encouraged to contact a potential supervisor before applying. The program has an expected length of four years and is delivered in person, with successful applicants considered for funding on the basis of merit.
