3 WHAT OUR STUDENTS SAY
4 UNDERGRADUATE GEOGRAPHY & ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE WHAT OUR STUDENTS SAY ABOUT THE LECTURERS The lecturers are very friendly and approachable. All members of staff in the department always make the time available for extra help, or even just to discuss any concerns and even their own research. Even the administration staff are so lovely, they make you feel at ease when you join the university and are always happy to help. It s really nice to see that you re learning from someone who is making a real impact with their research. A GREAT PLACE TO STUDY I really like the choice of modules we get all the choices and optional modules as well. In first year I did a Law module and an Economics module, which I really liked. Geography is very tailor-made. I can sit with someone who is doing a Geography degree and we could have learned totally different things and come out with the same degree. I have a degree that s tailored to everything I m interested in and that s something I love about it. It s very you. I honestly love the course that I am on, I have the perfect blend of Geography and Economics and there is always the opportunity to take on modules from other departments. In my final year, I m pleased that I have such good scope to specialise and study a topic that I find interesting. For more information go to: B

In addition to the compulsory Year 1 field class in the UK, students have the choice of a Year 2 field class to a European destination ranging from major cities to Mediterranean landscapes. Fieldwork is also an increasingly important component of many modules, from GIS mapping on the university campus to exploring the causes and consequences of flooding in the Loddon catchment. A significant number of students also choose to take an optional field class in their final year, including destinations to Norway, Iceland and the Mediterranean with recent visits to Malta and Cyprus. SKILLS & EMPLOYABILITY We see field classes as a critical part of your training, enabling you to develop skills in: teamwork and life skills field techniques and observation data analysis and presentation field observation skills WHAT OUR STUDENTS SAY The Crete field class is a must, although next year they are running a field class to Naples which I am very jealous about! Oli Stone-Houghton Human & Physical Geography The Year 2 field class is one of my highlights from my time at university. There is such a range of destinations and whilst we are there for academic purposes, it certainly provides a nice social aspect to get to know your course friends and lecturers a lot better. Rikhil Morjaria Geography & Economics The field trips are great, all the research was so interesting and enjoyable and I made really good friends while I was there.
