Geography, BA (Hons)

The BA (Hons) Geography Degree at Lincoln explores social science perspectives on issues of sustainability from local to global scales. It encourages students to develop the analytical, critical and collaborative skills needed to work across broad interdisciplinary issues. Geography is an integrative subject that aims to provide the intellectual tools necessary to understand the relationship between human society and its environment, and the issues that challenge our future. This course is designed to develop subject understanding and geographical skills progressively in the context of real-world problems, enabling students to apply their learning to contemporary global challenges. With Lincoln’s unique focus on the ‘safety and health of the inhabited Earth’, our mission is to deliver a degree that is relevant to the global, environmental and societal challenges for the 21st century. Our academics are experienced researchers investigating key and emerging issues in global development across a spectrum of human geography, in collaboration with academics in other disciplines, including physical geography. Students will engage in research and project work that builds on the expertise of staff.
