Departmental Support

Geographic Analysis students form a distinct community within the Faculty of Arts and Toronto Metropolitan University. There are approximately 200 students across all four years of the program.

Student success in individual courses and course groups is rewarded with some 25 program-specific student awards, in addition to Toronto Metropolitan University-wide entrance scholarships and the Dean's List recognition. Please ensure you read all emails sent by the program about awards and other opportunities such as campus jobs, internships, field trips, and international exchange programs, as well as significant dates and computer lab procedures.

For questions and concerns about a course, your instructor is the first person to contact. If the issue cannot be resolved or you do not feel comfortable speaking to the instructor, please speak with the Undergraduate Program Administrator, the Undergraduate Program Director, or the Department Chair depending on the nature of your concern.

Student Services Across Campus

Toronto Metropolitan University offers an extensive suite of Student Life and Learning Support services. Geographic Analysis students are participating in the "First Year Experience", "Tri-Mentoring Program", and "Writing and Language Support", to name a few. Given its career-focused nature, the Geographic Analysis program also works closely with the Career & Co-op Centre.

Last but not least, we count leading TMU Bold (external link)  athletes among our students, such as the H.H. Kerr Female Athlete of the Year 2020, volleyballer Cailin Wark, and soccer captain and 2019/20 leading scorer, Abdallah El-Chanti. (external link)
