What sort of Geography interest you?
Physical Geography, Environmental Geography, Human Geography?
Urban Studies, Geopolitics, International Development, Geology, Earth Sciences, Oceanography, Climate Change?

Every course will be different depending on the staff expertise and research interests at each Uni.
This is why you need to go to a range of Uni Open Days to listen to subject/course presentations , and think about what you want to study.

Aberystwyth has one of the best range of Geog courses :

Hi @Chloeetal
I completed a physical geography degree at Lancaster university, and loved my time there studying. There has been lots of flexibility in the modules you are able to pick with a good mix of fieldwork and lab work alongside lectures and seminars. Lancaster has a large range of human and physical geography courses, earth and environmental science and ecology courses, with placement years and study abroad options available.

Hi there,

As it has been said, there are a range of brilliant geography courses available depending on your specific interests.

I studied geography at the University of Chester, and I absolutely loved it! The range of modules offered each year fit to my interests well, the field trips were super fun and educational, and the facilities are fantastic. We offer a range of physical and human geography courses, with a year in industry or abroad, and many students opt for the dual honours options available too!

I completed a year abroad as part of my course too, and I absolutely loved it. The support I received throughout the whole process was fantastic, and I wouldn't trade my experience for the world.

You can take a closer look at what we offer here!

I hope this helps,
