Major professional skills training is as follows: |
5 | Natural science | Geography | | Human geography | Master | 3 | Human geography is the study of spatial differences and organizational structures of human activities or various humanistic phenomenon, as well as the relationship between human and geographical environment. Human geography focuses on the formation processes, structures, characteristics and development rules of human-land-space system, and plays an important role in coordinated and sustainable development of people, society, economy and resources. Human geography includes many branches, such as economic geography, urban geography, rural geography, political geography, cultural geography, historical geography, military geography, demographic geography, social geography, linguistic geography, religious geography. This subject mainly deals with the study of man-land relationship and location theory, the nature and discipline system of human geography and its development history, as well as the application of mathematical methods, remote sensing and GIS technology in various fields of human geography. |
6 | Natural science | Geography | | Environmental geography | Master | 3 | Environmental geography is a secondary master degree that our school sets independently. The post graduates training of this master degree is specialty focuses on the interaction and influence of human activities and geographical environment, including regional differences in environmental quality, historical development, evolution and prediction of environment, The occurrence, distribution, migration, transformation and self-purification of environmental pollutants, the rational use and protection of natural resources and so on. At present, we set three research directions: ecological restoration and reconstruction of degraded ecosystems, environmental change and ecosystem response, environmental planning and management. This professional has six master tutor (including 3 professors, 2 associate professors,which 4 of them recevied PhD), all assume the national and provincial research projects. The professional knowledge which graduate students gained can be widely used in human production activities such as agricultural production, marine industry, water conservancy and climatic conditions in human settlements (cities, towns and villages). Graduates can continue to study doctor graduate of domestic and foreign related professional, or mainly engaged in environmental protection, water conservancy, municipal, transportation, forestry and urban and rural planning and other management departments, university, research institutes, design institutes, companies and large enterprises and other units related work. |
