The research is roughly divided into two areas, namely, physical geography with emphasis on topography, geology, climate and marine natural environment and human geography with emphasis on population, city, transportation and culture.

Geographical science needs a lot of research on geographical application, and students will be exposed to knowledge about geology, exploration and urban and rural planning. Students majoring in geography should master the basic knowledge and theory of physical geography, human geography and geographic information science and technology; Cultivate professionals who can work in teaching and research units, relevant government departments and environmental protection.

Geographical science requires students to have a strong spirit of scientific exploration, the ability to accept new knowledge, new theories and new technologies, a good spirit of cooperation and team consciousness, and the ability to apply or develop remote sensing, satellite positioning navigation and geographic information systems.

Geographical thinking includes spatial thinking, systematic thinking and comprehensive thinking, which can help us better understand the phenomena and laws on the earth's surface.

2. The second core literacy of geographic science is geographic information literacy.

Geographic information literacy refers to the ability to acquire, process, analyze and apply geographic information through geographic information technology. Geographic information technology includes remote sensing technology, geographic information system, global positioning system and many other aspects, which can help us better obtain and use the information on the earth's surface.

3. The third core literacy of geographical science is global citizenship literacy.

The quality of citizens on earth refers to forming responsibility and concern for the earth through understanding and thinking about the earth environment and human activities, and actively participating in the protection and sustainable development of the earth environment.
