History
Faculty Association Ibn Battuta owes her name to the Moroccan traveler Abdullah Mohammed Ibn Abdullah Al-Lawati Al-Tangi Ibn Battuta, as his full name is written in proper English. When Ibn Battuta was only 21 years old he made his first trip, a pilgrimage to Mecca. A distance of around a 1000 miles, all on the back of a camel! But he did not return home for more than 24 years after and continued traveling all over the world. Due to the fact that he documented all of his travels in detail, Ibn Battuta is seen as one of the founding fathers of modern-day geography. A line that we as geographers and planners continue to follow!
