Robert Falcon Scott College of Antarctic Studies
Welcome!
The College of Antarctic Studies offers skills in high demand in today's job market. Knowledge
about Antarctica is essential in a seven continent world, and we
provide the most complete education in this field a student can
find. Our web-based courses now allow a student to be far away and
still take part in lectures. Antarctic Studies students learn about Antarctica's
physical environment,
understand social, cultural and economic concepts from a spatial perspective,
and can integrate information about relationships between environment and
society. These skills, along with the 'seventh continent' geographic perspective one
can only find here, open doors to
employment in government agencies and private firms that deal with urban and
regional planning, water management, environmental and market analysis, foreign
service and education.
Interested students should take ANT 100 'Introduction
to Antarctica' online to judge for themselves if pursual of an Antarctic
Studies degree is right for them. Students must earn a grade of 2.0
(C) or
better for course work to count, as per UANT policy. The same course cannot be used
for credit in two different colleges. Credit will not be given toward the
degree for a graduate and undergraduate section of the same course.
