Cooperative Education and Applied Geography
Chapter
Abstract
Applied geography has generated much discussion within the discipline over the past decade. Among academic geographers, deleterious trends within higher education, including declining enrollments, departmental reductions and closures, and erosion of traditional labor markets, have stimulated that discussion. In some people’s minds, applied geography is a solution for these inimical developments (Foster and Jones 1977; Frazier 1982).
