The curriculum of the Environmental Geography Study Programme is designed with the structure as shown in Figure 1. The subjects were accompanied by practical, should be taken theoretical and practical, although not at the same time. The subjects were given at the Environmental Geography Study Programme and divided subjects into three groups.
The first group is subjects that provide the fundamentals of personality and mastery of basic science in semesters I and II as a compulsory subject and given a package with a weight of 23 credits for semester I and 23 for semester II. The second group is subject to the procurement of science expertise and development interests in semesters III, IV, and V. Because this group is intended to develop the interest of students Most groups of these subjects form optional subjects.
At least obligation subjects in semesters III, IV, and V are also intended to allow students to develop their potential through extra-curricular activities. The third group is the subject of mastery and ability to work. This group is delivered in semesters VI and VII as obligation subjects. Because the main pressure of this group is to equip students with the ability to work, the subject of this group was carried out using the method of problem-based learning with a block system. The credit course load is 5 credits and 4 credits with composition 3 theory credits / 2 practical credits or 2 theory credits / 2 practical credits.

A block system is a system of college organized by providing course material for one unit of time in a row. One credit for the block system was taught in five working days with full and sequence times. Students can only take one subject in college outcomes conducted with a block system. In other means, a student when taking a course on a block system is not allowed to take other subjects.
