Welcome to the Department of Geography at the University of Nevada, Reno. The Department offers a Master of Science (MS) and a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Geography and an MS in Land Use Planning Policy (LUPP). The mission of the Department of Geography is to engage students with the highest levels of scholarship and to conduct integrative research on vital social and environmental problems, in service to our communities, from the local to the global. We use diverse approaches to analyze human and environmental patterns and processes across space and time.
