Overview

Geography from Miami University students receive departmental funding to complete thesis research and attend professional conferences. Their graduate students have access to the most up-to-date education and application of geospatial technology and theory.

The theoretical, methodological, teaching, and practical skills that our MA graduates have developed at Miami University lead them into related employment opportunities.

Their graduates obtain entry- to mid-level technical, geospatial, and managerial positions in city, state, and federal governmental agencies, and in a variety of start-ups, corporations, and non-profit and non-governmental organizations (NGOs).

Their M.A. students also have the option to complete a three- to six-month internship, undertaken simultaneously with required graduate course credits, with research experience equivalent to a thesis.

An Internship Report is required, which is a scholarly paper instead of a thesis, as well as monthly updates to the Graduate Advisory Committee.
