Bachelor of Arts - Geography

This degree is perfect for you if you wish to experience the full breadth of Geography, but would like to specialise primarily in Human Geography. After a common first year with BSC students, in years two and three, we offer a diversity of optional Human Geography modules, covering topics like migration, environmental governance, climate change, gentrification, food security and geopolitics. There remain some Physical Geography module options in years two and three, so you can build your degree to become a generalist, or a specialist in Human Geography, depending on your interests. Throughout you can gain transferable skills in satellite remote sensing and geographical information science (GIS). If you decide at the end of year one that you want to specialise in Physical Geography, you can easily transfer to the Geography BSc degree.

Throughout your degree, there will be emphasis on critical thinking and the development of quantitative and qualitative research skills. We encourage our students to be critical and creative in their research approaches and methods. We use innovative teaching and assessment methods and encourage our students to reflect upon the role Human Geographers play in the modern world.
