We work with industry and governments to address key problems such as social and health inequality and biodiversity and habitat loss. Our school is home to the WorldPop research group, GeoData consultancy and a diverse range of staff working across human and physical geography. We host The Centre for Environmental Science, a collaborative enterprise, and offer consultancy in fields such as spatial data infrastructures and handling, environmental impact and ecological assessment, and carbon footprinting.
Research groups, centres and institutes bring together specialists to share knowledge and solve problems.
