This course explores the complex relationships between societies and environments that are at the centre of the most important challenges of the 21st Century. We will teach you a broad range of topics, but there are a number of different themes that you can choose to explore across all three years. These include: Urban geography: our modules take full advantage of our London location as well as residential fieldwork in European settings that helps you to understand how modern cities function and how they can change. The postcolonial world and the enduring legacies of European colonialism: we examine geography’s role both contributing to and contesting the colonial project. Ecological emergency and issues of environmental justice: bringing together the human and physical elements of Geography, you will learn how life on Earth is changing in the Anthropocene period and explore some of the solutions to these challenges. Fieldwork is a key part of the programme, and takes place in the immediate surroundings and further afield. All students will participate in funded residential field trips in both the first and second year that are fully integrated into their studies. These provide opportunities for immersive learning and the development of important transferable skills. Upon graduation, you will have the knowledge to engage professionally with contemporary issues and analytical and practical skills for employment. You can also opt for a four-year degree with one or two sandwich placements, which will boost your CV and give you a competitive edge in the working world.
