Human Geography - BA (Hons)

Queen Mary University of London

Human geographers are crucial in addressing the many challenges societies across the world face today. Whether exploring individual experiences of food insecurity or collective responsibility for sustainable development, the course allows you to study the complex interactions between people, places and planet. And examine trends in human behaviour such as migration and economy. You’ll draw on the experiences and research of expert leaders in the field – some have even helped recreate London life through the ages on BBC’s Who Do You Think You Are. You’ll think critically and creatively about the world we live in. Learn sought-after practical skills in qualitative and quantitative data analysis. And develop knowledge of a wide range of contemporary issues. Many of our Human Geography graduates use their subject knowledge directly in business analysis, marketing, town or transport planning or geographical information systems (GIS). Others take their transferable skills into other careers, from risk analysis to management consultancy.
