Geography (Human)

Geography (Human) looks at how people behave and live together, the inequalities within societies, and the challenges facing the world. Students explore the dynamics of human life across the planet through a contemporary curriculum that connects theory with the places people inhabit. Year one introduces human geography in depth, and later years move into advanced study. Laboratory projects, field study and industry placements give students the practical experience that supports career progression. The course holds accreditation from the Royal Geographical Society and IBG. Graduates can move into fields such as town planning, international development and geospatial analysis, building a portfolio of skills along the way. The combination of projects, fieldwork and placements prepares students for work in these areas, and students leave with skills suited to each pathway.
