approved elective courses selected from their option menu in addition to 13 semester hours of required courses. Undergraduate minors are offered in Geology, Geography, Earth Science, and an interdisciplinary minor in Geographic Information Sciences. In addition, an Honors Program is offered to Geology and Geography majors who maintain a 3.5 cumulative grade-point average (on a 4- point scale). The department also offers two teacher certification programs: B.S. in Science (Earth Science designation) and B.S. in Social Science (Geography designation), and participates in two interdisciplinary Master’s programs: M.S. in Natural Sciences for Teachers (MSNS) and a Professional Science Masters in Geographic Information Sciences (PSM in GIS). Participants completing the B.S. in Science requirement will be certified to teach biological sciences, chemistry, earth sciences, and physics. Those who complete the B.S. in Social Science will be certified to teach economics, geography, history, political science, psychology, and sociology/anthropology. Both the B.S. in Science and MSNS, in addition to earth sciences, requires relevant courses in biological sciences, chemistry, and physics. The B.S. in Social Sciences, in addition to geography, requires relevant courses from economics, history, political science, psychology, and sociology/anthropology. The Master of Science for Natural Science Teachers (MSNS) is offered with a choice of six concentrations: Biology, Chemistry, Earth Science, General Science, Physical Science, and Physics. The intent of the program is to develop a comprehensive background in science for graduates to be able to teach any of the above disciplines. A teaching certificate is the prerequisite to participate in the MSNS degree program. The PSM in GIS includes coursework in Biological Sciences, Business Administration, Geography, Earth Science, Political Science and Sociology. The PSM is a non-thesis master’s program that requires a capstone internship experience. Programs are enhanced by established departmental field programs, internships, independent studies, student/faculty collaborative research opportunities, scholarships, and honors programs. Student’s academic experiences are enhanced by the unique departmental collaboration between geologists and geographers and faculty specialties in both disciplines. Field programs include introductory and advanced Earth Science Field Experience for Teachers in various regions of the United States, in addition to weekend or week-long trips during semester breaks. The department also offers faculty-led study abroad programs to Ecuador, Ireland/Scotland, Germany/Poland/Czech Republic/Austria and Turkey/Greece/Egypt. Students in the Department of Geology/Geography have available several classroom and research laboratories including the Special Projects Computer Lab, Geographic Information Sciences Lab, Sedimentation and Stratigraphy Lab, Paleontology Lab, and Microscopy Lab. The Special Projects and GIS labs contain personal computers, printers and plotters and make use of ArcGIS, ENVI and Surfer along with other current relevant software. A dedicated server is maintained for faculty and students in the department. The department is located in the Physical Science Building, centrally located on a tree-shaded 320 acre campus. Eastern, situated in East Central Illinois in the city of Charleston (population 20,000), is primarily a residential campus with approximately 8,500 full-time students. ACADEMIC PLAN, ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS, AND FINANCIAL AID: Financial aid is available to qualified students through the Financial Aid Office.

Telephone (309) 438-7649. Fax (309) 438-5310. E-mail: geo@ilstu.edu. Internet: http://www.geo.ilstu.edu/. PROGRAMS AND RESEARCH FACILITIES: Program fields correspond with faculty expertise that include: physical and applied climatology, paleoclimatology, human-environment interactions, geographic information systems, cartography, remote sensing, hydrology, and quantitative methods. Faculty members have regional strengths and many have conducted foreign, national, or local fieldwork. The Institute of Geospatial Analysis & Mapping (GEOMAP) was dedicated in 2008. Its mission is to support research activities that aim to improve our understanding of complex interactions between human 55
and natural systems through the application of state-of-the-art geographic information sciences and technologies. Technical skills in cartography and GIS are especially popular among our students. The department maintains 3 computer labs equipped with the latest hardware and software packages for current applications in physical and human geography. The University Library has a substantial map collection and more than 1,600,000 volumes supplemented by a courier service to the University of Illinois Library and the Center for Research Libraries. ACADEMIC PLAN, ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS, AND FINANCIAL AID: Geography majors are required to take 50 credit hours, ranging from introductory, regional requirements, thematic requirements, and electives. The major requires a capstone internship that provides an opportunity for the students to find employment prospects in geography and related fields. Four themes bridge the differences in faculty expertise and training. These themes are: Community and Regional Development, Environmental Science, Geographic Information Systems and Technology, and Human-Environment Interactions. The Geography Teacher Certification major prepares students to become teachers in grades 6 through 12 and helps them gain certification as Geography and Social Science teachers. The requirements are similar to those in the non-teaching major with additional certification courses in the College of Education. 56 hours are required. Student teaching is part of the Teacher Certification requirement. The department offers an interdisciplinary minor, Environmental Studies, which requires substantial course work in geography. The department offers a Geography Minor which requires 21 hours of Geography classes.

Website: www.neiu.edu/ges PROGRAMS AND RESEARCH FACILITIES: The Bachelor of Arts in Geography, in the College of Arts and Sciences is a traditional geography degree with an emphasis on urban planning, GIS, and environmental issues. It combines the conceptual disciplinary work within human and physical geography with the integrative tools of GIS, cartography, spatial statistics, and field methods. The Department of Geography & Environmental Studies (G&ES) also offers a B.A. in Environmental Studies, with emphasis on policy/planning or education/interpretation. A 33-hour Master’s of Arts in Geography and Environmental Studies combines all these strengths and allows students to design their own research track. The Department introduced GIS to the curriculum in 1991 and now offers two certificates, one at the undergraduate and one at the graduate level, that are each comprised of five geospatial courses as well as statistics. A minor in Geography, one in Environmental Studies, and one in Geographic Information Science are also offered. Northeastern is primarily a commuter university with nearly 10,000 students attending classes at four locations in the Chicagoland area. G&ES is housed on the University’s main campus on Chicago’s far north side. The main campus is set on 67 landscaped acres surrounded by a quiet residential community, with ample parking and access by public transportation. Northeastern was named sixth “Best Investment” in higher education nationwide by Newsweek, and its student body is ranked among the most diverse in the Midwest. The University’s first residential housing unit will open on the main campus Fall 2016. 56
