Undergraduate

Our BA and BSc courses are taught by world-leading researchers. You’ll gain fresh insights into the world around you and a strong foundation in current geographical research. Learn how geographical methods help tackle major global challenges, while building valuable skills in project design and critical thinking.

Many of our students choose our long-running BA and BSc Geography courses. But if you already have a clear idea of your interests, you might prefer to specialise early. Each of our degrees builds on the core content of the BA and BSc. From there, you can focus on the areas of Geography that interest you most.
