Understanding how global environmental change may impact public health requires social, physical, and public health knowledge. Geography, which encompasses many of these perspectives, is well-positioned to train the next-generation of leaders.

Graduate students often find it beneficial to study a topic related to my research agenda. Intuitively, I can provide better subject-area advice and access to a broader network of project partners. Every two out of three studies I conduct uses existing data collected by other institutions. The rest of my research relies upon observational field studies and social surveys. My laboratory includes basic equipment for conducting heat exposure and mosquito field studies.

The FSU Geography Program admits a couple of funded international students per year. There are fewer funded international compared to domestic student positions. That being said, I am currently working with one international student.

Please refer to the FSU Department of Geography webpage for more information on how to apply to the graduate program. Information about degree requirements and transferring credit can be found in the Graduate Student Guide.
