Introduction:

This course takes an integrated approach to studying the relationship between people and the physical environment. Our students are typically concerned about the Earth and its communities, and the course explores the key role that geographical concepts and techniques have in solving environmental problems, social inequalities and improving the quality of life and well-being. We aim to produce geographers with a lifelong passion for the subject and to equip them with the knowledge and skills to contribute to society and move with confidence into their chosen career.
