Survey: What are the Top Geography Departments in the US?

March 6, 2012

Recently I compiled a ranking of the Top 20 Geography Departments in the US using the National Research Council’s assessment of doctoral programs. There were some big changes from the last rankings and I received several comments questioning some of the results. I thought it would be fun to conduct a survey and see how the results compare to the NRC rankings.

So, I created a survey to find out what you think. It should only take a few minutes to complete. Click here to take the survey!

There’s space within the survey to provide suggestions but feel free to use the comments section below as well.

Thanks for participating!
