Geography Degrees
Overview
As humans become more aware of the impact they’re having on the natural environment, geography becomes more relevant. The courses take a ‘world view’ approach to these impacts and study is a mixture of practical experiments and analytical research.
Both degrees are highly topical and the university makes the most of its seaside location by injecting coastal and marine studies into its geography courses.
