Geography: A.A.-T
Earn an Associate Degree for Transfer in Geography
The Associate in Arts in Geography for Transfer (AA-T) prepares students to move into
a curriculum at a 4-year institution leading to a baccalaureate degree in Geography.
Please consult a counselor regarding specific course requirements for your transfer
institution. Completion of the AA-T degree also provides guaranteed admission with
junior status to the CSU system, although does not guarantee admission to a specific
campus or major. Upon completion of the AA-T in Geography, students will have an understanding
of both the breadth and depth of the spatial perspective that is central to geographic
study. This knowledge will be grounded in the comprehension of geographic principles,
concepts, ideas, theories, research, terminology, and relationships. Students will
also have the capacity to write and think in a critical and analytical way about issues
pertaining to earth surface study, human/environment interaction and impact, and local,
regional, and global relationships and associations.
