Do you seek critical perspectives on the difficult and complex problems that effect human well-being and environmental conditions in the world today? Human geography is a social science devoted to understanding the relationship between human societies and the Earth. It has two core areas of study. The first focuses on the interaction of people with nature, including the extraction of natural resources, the environmental impact of people and their activities, and the effects of natural forces on society. The second focuses on the spatial organization of societies and the construction of places, landscapes, and regions through human action and creativity. This course conducts a broad introduction to the main sub-fields within the discipline, including: population and migration; resource use and sustainability; culture and human landscapes; industrialization and uneven economic development; the political organization/reorganization of space; agriculture, rural livelihoods and food production; urbanization and urban life.
