As a PhD student in the Department of Geography and Environmental Science at Reading, you will be part of a vibrant research community.
We offer PhD programmes in the following areas:
environmental science
geography
human geography
soil science.
Geographies of justice, care and responsibility: We focus on inequalities, participatory approaches, politics and governance in diverse fields. These include environmental change, food networks, gender and caring relations, and citizen science at local–global spatial scales.
Global development, environment and sustainability: We critically examine global flows of ideas and resources looking at the interactions between poverty, population, livelihood development, governance and sustainability of natural resources.
Past climate and environmental change: We use a range of paleo-data and modelling approaches to understand past human–environment–climate relationships at regional to global scales, over millennial to glacial-interglacial time frames.
To be accepted onto a research degree programme, you will need to have obtained a strong merit grade (equivalent to 65% or above on a UK programme for both the coursework and the dissertation) on a master's degree in a relevant field, but applicants with other qualifications may be accepted in certain circumstances.
