SOUTH AFRICA COUNTRY PROFILE OF SOUTH AFRICA GEOGRAPHIC AND DEMOGRAPHIC INFORMATION GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION LOCATION South Africa lies at the southern end of the African continent. Latitudes 22 degrees S to 33 degrees S Longitudes 17 degrees E to 33 degrees E AREA 1.288 Million Sq Km MAIN GEOGRAPHIC REGIONS There are four major geographical regions: the Coastal Belt between the escarpment and the sea; the Little Karoo, a narrow tableland separated from the Coastal Belt by the Langeberg and Outeniqua mountains; the Great Karoo, separated from the Little Karoo by the Swartberg and Surberg mountains; and the Highveld comprising the nortern Cape, the Orange Free State and part of Natal together with most of the Transvaal. The coastline is 3,000 km in extent and is washed by two oceans, the Atlantic in the west and the Indian in the south and east. Two major current systems, the warm Mozambique in the east and south and the cold Benguela in the west, flow along the country's shores. CLIMATE South Africa enjoys a generally temperate climate, though weather patterns and rainfall statistics vary widely. While the Western Cape has mediterranean-type winter rains and the rainfall on other coastal areas are spread throughout the year, 80% of the country's annual rainfall happens during the summer months (from October to March), much of it is accompanied by hail and thunder-storms.

A good geographer is the epitome of a good generalist. The General Concentration is designed for the student who wants a broad but structured overview of geography. It also allows for the development of competency in a particular region, in a topical sub-discipline, or in geographic techniques. The concentration is appropriate for students simply curious about the world or those wishing the flexibility to pursue either a variety of careers or a graduate degree in geography, or, perhaps, wanting to join the Peace Corps. After completing the core courses, each student designs a coherent and focused program in studies in consultation with is/her advisor. Curriculum GEOGRAPHY CORE COURSES: Physical Geography, Human Geography, Map Interpretation, World Geography (Europe and the Americas or Africa and Asia), and one 200-level regional course chosen by the student. REQUIRED GEOGRAPHY COURSES: a second 200-level regional course, 3 topical courses, and 1 geographic techniques course. OTHER REQUIRED COURSES: two additional 200-level or higher geography courses of the student's choice and three 200-level or higher courses from fields related to geography and the student's focus.

The Department of Geography's Home Page Go to the General Information Page (Recommended after reading the following Preamble). Preamble: The University of Port Elizabeth is a relatively small institution with approximately 5000 students. Of these approximately 250 are enrolled for courses in the Department of Geography, in which the medium of instruction is English. The Department offers courses in the Arts, Science, Economic Sciences, Health Sciences and education faculties, at undergraduate level, and in the Arts and Economic Sciences faculties at postgraduate level (Go to the Course Page . In general, Geography classes are small, making staff-student contact more direct than is possible in many larger institutions. Consequently, through personal contact and discussion it is possible to overcome many problems in their initial stages. The city of Port Elizabeth and the Eastern Cape provide a varied and interesting environment for geographical teaching and research in both the physical and human sectors. Thus fieldwork in the immediate urban environment and further afield plays an important part in the Geography programme. Although the University of Port Elizabeth is only 30 years old it has the facilities offered by many older institutions and in some respects has more complete collections, notably in the library. The Department has its own computer terminals and access to the facilities of the University Computing Centre and the Geographical Information Systems laboratory
