About the course

If you are eager to understand how our planet operates and contribute to addressing major global challenges, geophysics may suit you. This field applies physics to explore the intricate interactions within Earth's systems, from the core to the atmosphere. It involves studying causes of natural disasters like earthquakes and volcanoes, using remote sensing via satellites and drones to collect data, and analyzing environmental changes to minimize human impacts. The interdisciplinary essence of geophysics makes it vital for fostering a sustainable future.Our degree program combines geology and geophysics, teaching you about mineral properties, Earth's structure, and forces such as gravity, seismology, and magnetism. You will examine climate change effects and Earth's history to inform future safeguards, all through hands-on, research-led instruction by world-renowned experts. This approach enhances practical skills and employability, supported by our top-ranked status in global rankings for Earth sciences.
