Overview
Education
The Geography program at Louisiana State University recognizes and demands mastery of one or more subfields of the discipline. Doctoral students go far beyond the level required for lesser degrees, and their work is expected to be of such quality that it could grace the pages of scholarly books and journals.
Although doctoral students are expected to exhibit the intellectual breadth required of an academic position, the Ph.D. is primarily a research degree, and doctoral students should expect to spend little time sitting in undergraduate lecture courses in geography, save those needed to remedy deficiencies.
Programme Structure
Courses include:
- Research Methods in Geography
- Settlement Geography
- Form-Process Relationships in Coastal Environments
- Selected Topics in Geography
- Advanced Physical Geography
