Geography: our world and our place in it

Geography - our world and our place in it

From climate change to globalisation, geography brings insight into current challenges that affect the world.

Everything happens somewhere. This makes geography special. We aim to inspire a passion in young people for looking at the world through the varied techniques of geography, from human to physical and from local to global.

With our teacher training in Google Earth we aim to bring the power of new mapping tools into the classroom.

“My geography degree has definitely opened doors for me. The broad range of topics studied and issues covered helped to open my eyes to new interests and career paths. Without my degree I wouldn’t have the graduate job I have now.”
