Abstract: The University of Toledo College of Arts and Sciences proposes to offer a multidisciplinary Doctor of Philosophy Degree in Spatially-Integrated Social Science as a cooperative venture between the departments of Geography and Planning, Economics, Political Science and Public Administration, and Sociology and Anthropology. The program will be designed around the application of geographic information science and spatial analysis to study the spatial dimension of human and social dynamics, including interaction of individuals and society, government, and market participants. This program will enhance the allied social science’s role in UT's mission as a metropolitan urban university and will strengthen the university’s efforts in outreach, research and education. This proposed program will focus on space as a unifying theme under which social scientists can examine social, political and economic processes over the landscape. The location and distribution of populations and the social processes that influence those populations will thus form the basis upon which the relevant data associated with these phenomena are assembled, organized, displayed . . .
