Geography studies the spatial distributions and interactions of peoples, places, and environments throughout the world. The discipline describes, analyzes and represents these spatial phenomena. A geography minor relates to many other disciplines, with robust spatial sub-fields such as Environmental Science, History, Criminal Justice, Biology, Political Science, Leisure Studies, Cultural Studies, Ethnic and Gender Studies, and Economics and Management.
Twelve (12) of the Geography Minor credits must be taken in residence at Westfield State University.
