Environmental Geoscience, BSc (Hons), with study abroad

Environmental geoscientists apply knowledge of Earth's processes to predict hazards like floods and earthquakes, remediate hazardous waste, and support civil engineering projects such as roads, tunnels, and buildings.Our four-year Environmental Geoscience degree explores planetary processes including acid rain and global warming, while developing solutions to geological challenges in the UK and worldwide. Gain advanced skills in mapping, research, analysis, and problem-solving through field trips in South Wales' geologically rich landscapes, including natural beauty spots, industrial sites, and past overseas destinations like Spain and Cyprus. A year abroad at a partner university enhances cultural exposure, global networks, and skills like adaptability. Industry-designed with Geological Society accreditation, no prior geology is required; Year 1 covers fundamentals for all students. Graduates are equipped to become chartered geologists.
