#35: Two study programs at the Department of Geography
As early as the 1960s, the University of Zurich offered in addition to the Geography program also a degree in Geology. This was later renamed "Geosciences" and its content was realigned in 2012 as "Earth System Sciences". From 2017 onwards, the number of students increased significantly.
