(Course preview)

Welcome to the ISS 310 virtual course!

This course is designed to provide you with a survey of global and regional interactions among people, their geographic location and utilization of space, and the physical environment.

One of the primary emphases of ISS 310 is how natural systems operate and how humans have responded to them. Another emphasis, is how humans have impacted localized and global natural systems. As a result, ISS 310 is a merger of Physical Geography with Social Science.
