Geography, MA (Hons)

If you have a keen interest in cultures, societies, and the relationship between politics and the environment, geography may be an ideal field for you. It involves studying how the world operates, including physical processes like volcanoes, flooding, and climate change, as well as human issues such as sustainability, health, and social justice. Geography can be pursued as a natural science through physical geography or as a social science via human geography, making it essential for understanding contemporary challenges.Our Master of Arts in Geography specializes in human geography, exploring topics like public health, deprivation, urban justice, indigenous struggles, migration, and the climate emergency.
