Geography, BSc (Hons), with study abroad

Enroll in a UK university ranked first for Geography and Environmental Studies research (THE analysis of REF 2021) and in the top ten for teaching in Geography and Environmental Science (Complete University Guide 2024). This four-year BSc Geography course mirrors the standard programme but includes a third year abroad at an English-speaking university, where you will study geography and related subjects. Exchange options span institutions in Australia, Canada, Hong Kong, Iceland, Japan, New Zealand, Singapore, Switzerland, and the US.The first year provides an introduction to physical and human geography, alongside essential skills in geographical and scientific methods. Subsequent years focus on specialised units in physical geography—exploring Earth's processes like climate change, glaciology, and hydrology—or human geography, covering cultural, economic, and social aspects, including global politics and health inequalities. You will gain expertise in software, statistics, field data collection, and practical fieldwork, including UK and overseas trips. The programme culminates in a final-year dissertation and is accredited by the Royal Geographical Society, ensuring professional recognition.
