4-Term Pathway - Foundation Certificate for Business, Law and Social Sciences - Continue to Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - Geography and Planning

The University of Liverpool Geography and Planning BA programme draws equally from both disciplines, with some flexibility to enable the inclusion of optional sociology modules, offering an interdisciplinary and varied degree programme.

The programme provides students with knowledge of the challenges facing modern society, the means to interpret diverse phenomena and an understanding of the conceptual and philosophical arguments surrounding human interactions with the environment. Students are supported to acquire and enhance their oral, written and visual communication skills and engage in group-based problem-solving and practical work, gaining skills that are readily transferable to the workplace. Residential field classes are an integral part of modules available in each year of study.

This programme is designed as part of a suite of strongly related programmes, and core modules in Years One and Two are shared with the planning programmes and BA Geography. This enables students to transfer between programmes in the first two years should their interests or career aspirations change.
