Geographic Studies Club
Who We Are
The University of Chicago Geographic Studies Club (UCGEO) is a general-interest student-led group for undergraduate students to explore the world from the classroom by learning geography and geographic information science through a rich program of engaging activities. UCGEO offers the following opportunities for all members:
- To attend weekly meetings (during the academic year) on a breadth of geographic subjects according to the weekly theme.
- To participate in team-based geography trivia, Geoguessr, and other activities during club sessions.
- To discuss all things geography with peers passionate about the subject.
- To sample international culinary offerings via free, weekly, catered food and drink options.
- To visit Chicago-based geographic institutions and exhibits unique to the city, such as map collections, museums, and galleries.
- To attend original lectures hosted by guest speakers in relevant fields
Schedule
Our regular weekly programming takes place on Mondays from 7-8pm in Cobb Hall 402. Average attendance ranges between 25-35 students per meeting. For field trips, guest lectures, and other events, times and registration signups are announced in advance.
