Empowering the next generation of geographers, planners, and spatial scientists
Geographers, planners and spatial scientists study places, landscapes, and regions to address issues like food and energy security, economic inequality, biodiversity conservation, sustainable urban development, and climate change adaptation and resilience.
In our School we strive to provide high-quality and interactive learning experiences for our students and to conduct impactful research that helps promote fairness, drive positive change, and support lasting sustainability in communities and ecosystems.
We envision a world where knowledge, respect and creativity enable communities to adapt equitably and sustainably to shifting environmental realities where climate-responsive practices restore balance, and where insights from Tasmania inspire transformative action worldwide.
