课程简介
The Ph.D. is a different kind of degree from the master's degree. A doctoral candidate in Geography must be capable of making original contributions to knowledge and scholarship. It is unlikely that a person will make such contributions unless he or she concentrates on a narrow and clearly defined field of study. We require, however, that doctoral candidates know more of geography than their particular specialties, thus, any aspirant for a doctorate must obtain master's training or its equivalent before being admitted to doctoral candidacy. In short, admission to doctoral candidacy is official recognition that a student's general foundation in the breadth of geography is satisfactory. Students then devote their attention to developing depth in chosen specialties.<br>The general requirements for a doctoral degree in geography are more rigorous than those for a master's degree. At the same time, the greater flexibility of the doctoral program allows advanced students to pursue programs of study tailored to their special interests and needs.

关于宾州州立大学帕克分校
每122位本科毕业的美国人中就有1个是PSU的校友1855年建校的宾州州立大学目前已经有了24个校区,University Park是其中的旗舰校区,也是规模最大的校区,容纳学生45000余人。距离宾州州府Harrisburg仅仅17英里的地理位置优势让University Park成为最受欢迎的PSU校区,同时也成为了录取率最低的校区。Party School的称号在PSU身上由来已久,但同时,每年专程跑到PSU校内面试应届毕业生的公司和政府部门超过1000个,这里的学术水准绝对不是盖的。美国每50个工程师中,就有1人是PSU的毕业生PSU的理工课尤其是工程学专业非常知名。实际上从1988年开始,PSU从工业界拿到的学术研究资金总额一直排名美国所有大学的前两位,仅次于麻省理工。很多工业界企业干脆直接将产品研发放在PSU进行。另外,地球与矿产科学学院在美国同类学院中排名第6,其中的地理专业全美第一,地质专业全美第三,均属世界一流学科项目。理论性大众传媒专业同样排名全美第一,与哥伦比亚大学的应用型大众传媒并驾齐驱。 Penn State-University Park的申请竞争相当激烈。申请材料中主观性的PS与简历部分属于非要求项。实际上,每年,单纯从成绩角度做出的录取决定占总录取人数的2/3。所以,想去PSU,得先保证有一个靠谱的标准化成绩。
