Why Geography?

Geography is the study of places, people, and their environments. It seeks to understand where things are found, why they are there, and how they develop, and how they change over time. This is a dynamic and interdisciplinary subject and prepares you to be an informed citizen.

A skilled geographer can always find a job as an environmental consultant, cartographer, town and city planner, geographic information systems manager, weather forecaster, conservation officer, instructor, or work for city, county or state governments. 

Why Heartland?

There are many reasons to study geography at Heartland Community College:

  • Affordable
  • Dedicated, experienced instructors who work in the field

  • Student-focused
  • Supportive environment
  • Face-to-face and online classes
