Description:

We welcome applicants for Graduate Studies in all of our research areas. Graduate programs in the Department of Geography at Simon Fraser University provide students with the best possible research and academic preparation in a diverse range of fields, from urban systems to political economy, geomorphology to climate science, and agent-based modeling to geovisualization. The Department offers MA, MSc, and PhD degrees focused on research in human geography, earth systems dynamics (physical geography) and spatial and geographic information systems. Interested potential applicants should contact potential supervisors directly, as virtually all entrants identify possible supervisor(s) before they enter the program.

    Applicants normally have an M.A. or M.Sc. in Geography or a related discipline, although it is possible to enter the Ph.D. program without a prior graduate degree. Students admitted to the Ph.D. program without an appropriate background may be required to make up specified courses.
