The AP Human Geography course is equivalent to an introductory college-level course in Human Geography. The course introduces students to the systematic study of patterns and processes that have shaped human understanding, use, and alteration of Earth’s surface. Students employ spatial concepts and landscape analysis to examine socio economic organization and its environmental consequences. They also learn about the methods and tools geographers use in their research and applications. The curriculum reflects the goals of the National Geography Standards and may be used as a world history course for some colleges. Concurrent enrollment available through the University of Idaho.
