Geography Challenge | NUS Outstanding Educator Award

The Department of Geography organised its annual Geography Careers Talk on Wednesday, 28 March 2007. In conjunction with the Talk, there was also an Open House offering displays of the Department's curriculum as well as the activities of the Geographical Society and student projects. The Open House was held in the Earth Lab and was organised by the NUS Geographical Society.

The Careers Talk and Open House present opportunities for undergraduates and junior college students to learn more not just about geography but especially the wide-ranging and excellent career prospects available to geography graduates. The speakers for the Career Day Talk 2007 included:

Following the individual talks, members of the audience asked many questions pertaining to, among other things, fieldwork skills; the value of human and physical geography in the working world; and even the favourite subjects of the speakers when they were undergraduates. This year, more than 300 students and teachers attended the Careers Talk.
