Research

    Geography is the study of the Earth as our home. Maynooth University has leading researchers in Human, Physical and Environmental Geography, and in Geocomputation; both in the Department of Geography and in associated Research Institutes and Centres. Our research addresses major societal challenges as we seek to make a home for ourselves and for those who follow us.
