Choosing a Great Geography and Environmental Studies School for Your Doctor's Degree
Your choice of geography and environmental studies for getting your doctor's degree school matters. This section explores some of the factors we include in our ranking and how much they vary depending on the school you select. To make it into this list, a school must excel in the following areas.
A Great Overall School
The overall quality of a doctor's degree school is important to ensure a quality education, not just how well they do in a particular major. To make it into this list a school must rank well in our overall Best Colleges for a Doctor's Degree ranking. This ranking considered factors such as graduation rates, overall graduate earnings and other educational resources to identify great colleges and universities.
Early-Career Earnings
One measure we use to determine the quality of a school is to look at the average salary of doctorate graduates during the early years of their career. This is because one of the main reasons people pursue their doctor's degree is to enable themselves to find better-paying positions.
Other Factors We Consider
In addition to the above, you should consider some of the following factors:
Major Focus - How many resources a school devotes to geography and environmental studies students as compared to other majors.
Major Demand - The number of geography and environmental studies students who choose to seek a doctor's degree at the school.
Educational Resources - The amount of money and other resources allocated to students while they are pursuing their degree. These resources include such things as number of students per instructor and education expenditures per student.
Student Debt - How easy is it for geography and environmental studies to pay back their student loans after receiving their doctor's degree.
Accreditation - Whether a school is regionally accredited and/or accredited by a recognized geography and environmental studies related body.
Our full ranking methodology documents in more detail how we consider these factors to identify the best colleges for geography and environmental studies students working on their doctor's degree.

Insufficient Data for the United States
Due to missing data, we couldn't provide you with the geography and environmental studies quality ranking. This is usually due to there not being enough schools in the United States that both offer geography and environmental studies and provided enough information for us to do a sufficient analysis.
