Program overview
Bachelor of Arts - Environmental Geography is a four year honours route at Nipissing University in North Bay, Ontario. The Bachelor of Arts - Environmental Geography curriculum covers environmental systems, climate and landscape processes, resource management, geographic information systems and environmental policy across four years.
Studied as a single major rather than inside a dual degree, Bachelor of Arts - Environmental Geography gives students the full depth of the subject and room for electives across the faculty. Taking Bachelor of Arts - Environmental Geography on its own carries one implication worth stating. Environmental literacy has moved from optional to expected across Canadian employers, and combining it with a second specialisation or a graduate route later widens where that expertise can be applied, which is worth weighing before choosing Bachelor of Arts - Environmental Geography over a dual route.
As a degree level award, Bachelor of Arts - Environmental Geography sits outside the field of study rules, which removes the CIP check that non degree applicants must complete. Study at this level does not carry spousal open work permit eligibility, so anyone considering Bachelor of Arts - Environmental Geography with a partner should plan on a single income. Every work permit decision rests with Canadian immigration authorities, and Apply Study Visa confirms the position for Bachelor of Arts - Environmental Geography in writing before you pay a deposit.
