What can you do with geography?

We all know that geography is important; but what can you do with it? As students across the country prepare for the 2012 National Geographic Bee, we've explored how geography is used in the real world, from disaster response to military intelligence and even polar exploration. We wish all competitors good luck in this year's competition!

2020 here. Corona stirred my mind for a while now if I'm gonna get History or Geography. Two years from now, I'll be in college and I'm still torn between the two. Hehe

Geography is well better than accounting and finance subjects

I'm a peruvian geographer, in my country geography is a subestimated science, in addition my family is not in a good economic conditions, but I can say "I'm very happy to be geographer". My teacher always say me: "Geography is a difficult knowledge, because we work in both, the social an the phisycal sphere". I think the life of a geographer is hard but very satisfactory. Be a geographer requiere so much work and passion. I recomend "Geographer at work" by Peter Gould as initial book.

Geography's important because its a way of life, it's the earth that's molded into something new and will keep on changing. Geography can help us get around and it fits into a lifestyle with people around the world, like back then people would live in caves or the forests. Humans and animals have adapted to the worlds geography over time.

Geography is a great field of study, however, imho if you want a career in it your best chance is to go into geoinformatics/GISc. Basically the more technical skill you acquire (computer science, GIS, Remote Sensing, statics, mathematics) the more valuable you are to employers in today's economy. If all else fails you at least have knowledge in computer science and math; two valuable fields that many people lack skill in. The problem is finding a good school with a decent GISc degree program.
