Geography

Course summary

Geography is an exciting and relevant course to study at present as it links to contemporary global issues such as climate change and globalisation. It is a subject which offers a diversity of skills (both quantitative and qualitative) that students will require at university level and beyond which are highly transferable. It is considered both a science and an arts subject. Geographers have done some pretty important things for the human race, including charting new territory, developing maps (cartography) and measuring distances to help us get from A to B long before we could simply take a picture of an area from space.
