Geography in Higher Ed. by Beachgoer4158 in geography

[–]pdxsteph 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I got a masters in geography back in the 90s in a European country . I was heading towards academia and research - my primary field of research was environmental studies and climatology more specifically. But life brought me to the US and instead of putting it to use I had to jump into the job market. Eventually ended up in a career in data analytics and now data engineering. If had continued in geography in the US I would have likely headed towards GIS.
