Geographers work in many public agencies and private businesses that use geographic information, geolocation and knowledge of how places, regions, markets, cities and social and natural systems are connected across space. Planning, environment, population, parks, police and transportation departments employ geographers and so do the bureau of census and emergency management and various other agencies. Those with geography degrees are also well suited to develop careers in environmental, financial, education, political, public health and other private consulting and technology firms. Many also work for nonprofit agencies, elected officials or community groups. The possibilities for careers in geography are really quite wide-ranging, depending on your own individual interests.
