Jobs

Even as I have been writing this blog, I have always wondered what kind of jobs are available in this field. In one of my human geography classes, the prof gave out a pamphlet called "Map Your Future" from the Michigan State University Department of Geography.In the pamphlet, there is a list of careers that MSU geography majors have discovered. The list includes:

• Environmental Consultant
• Public School Teacher
• Purchasing/Logistics Manager
• Economic Location Analyst
• Natural Historian
• GIS Analyst
• Forestry Technician
• Strategic Planning
• Earth Scientist
• National Geospatial Intelligence Agency

Now from reading this, I, and hopefully my readers, also have a better understanding of the opportunities this field has.
