Undergraduate students pursuing a graduate degree in Geographic Information Science (GIScience) might qualify for the Bachelors/Master's Pathways Program. This GIScience Pathway equips you with advanced expertise in geographic information technologies (including GIS, spatial analysis, remote sensing, and geovisualization), enhancing your career prospects. Through the combined MS GIS pathways program, you can apply up to 12 graduate credit hours toward both your undergraduate and master's degrees in GIScience, provided both are completed at FSU.
The Department of Geography provides two distinct degrees, highlighting its interdisciplinary nature between social and natural sciences: a bachelor's in Geography and a new STEM bachelor's in Environment & Society. Although these programs share some common ground, they diverge in their focus—Geography studies how location and scale influence human behavior across urban, rural, and natural settings, while Environment & Society investigates the reciprocal impacts between humans and environmental changes. Students have the option to double major in Geography and Environment & Society, with a limit of eleven overlapping semester hours. Additionally, the Department offers Pathways programs connecting both the Geography and Environment & Society majors to the Applied Master's in Geographic Information Science.

Qualification Requirements
An applicant who desires admission as a first year in college student must be graduated from a regionally accredited high school (or comparable international institution). All transcripts/academic records that are not in English must be accompanied by certified English translations. If the transcript/academic record does not indicate the degree earned and date the degree was awarded, separate proof of degree is required. We require freshman applicants to submit at least one ACT and/or SAT test score to be considered for admission. Florida State does not require the optional ACT writing score or the optional SAT essay. We encourage applicants to take both the ACT and SAT, and to attempt each exam more than one time to earn the highest possible score.
