WHAT ARE THE QUALITIES NEEDED FOR GEOGRAPHERS/EARTH SCIENTISTS?--Postgraduate Geography-Related Program Study

During last few weeks I carried out a program study for postgraduate geography and earth science programs that are posted on each university’s website and looked for the qualities or abilities needed for the geographers. I counted the frequency of words being mentioned on the program websites. Interestingly, it turns out that “critical”, “creative” are the post important qualities for the earth scientists and geographers. I visualized the outcome as the three “word clouds” posted below.

word cloud of earth science courses

word cloud of human geography and/or environment courses

word cloud of all geography courses
