AP Human Geography
About APHUG and Course Docs
AP Human Geography explores the relationships between human beings, their physical and cultural environment, and one another. The fundamental lens we'll use to look at the world is the "Why of where." This means we study human patterns on earth's surface and work to understand why they exist and their implications for humans and the environment.
