Students come to Macalester so that they can make a difference as global citizens. Geography provides a unique foundation for this work, with its integrative approach to human-environment issues and use of geospatial analysis techniques. Macalester’s Geography Department is committed to fostering inclusive and supportive learning environments that welcome everybody. Our students, alumni, and faculty promote community resilience in a changing world through their work on sustainable food systems, public health, environmental justice, efficient and equitable transportation systems, support for rural livelihoods, land use and land cover change, and planning for socially just and environmentally sustainable cities. Our students and faculty complement this work through leadership in Macalester’s interdisciplinary concentrations. Whatever the topic of focus, the Geography Department supports its students to make an impact by preparing them to apply geographical analysis tools and conceptual insights to understand and solve dynamic problems, create compelling maps and data visualizations, communicate the value of thinking geographically with diverse public audiences, and engage collaboratively with communities in the Twin Cities and beyond.
