Geography is the integrated study of landscapes, peoples, places, and environments, serving as a crucial discipline for understanding our rapidly changing world. It bridges the social and natural sciences through its interconnected strands of human and physical geography. The BA degree offers a broad foundation in both areas during the first year, allowing students to specialize in human geography or maintain a balanced approach in later years. Students benefit from cutting-edge research by academic staff, who advance knowledge in geography and influence national and international policy, ensuring the curriculum addresses key societal issues.The Geography BA and BSc degrees both provide a solid grounding in social and physical processes affecting the planet, with options to focus on human geography (BA) or physical geography (BSc), while still permitting a balanced study. Modules are detailed on the course website. Assessment typically involves exams, coursework, or a combination, with fieldwork, reports, and group presentations featured in various modules across years. For full course details, refer to the programme specification.
