Prerequisite: GEOG 1000; any introductory social science course.
Military operations are inherently geographic in nature, so this course studies the impact of physical and human geography on the conduct and outcome of such operations. In addition to specific war-fighting cases from history, the course covers geopolitics and the geographic aspects of peacekeeping, terrorism, disaster management, humanitarian assistance, recruiting, and training.
