Our geology courses are fully accredited by the Geological Society of London, the main professional body for geoscientists in the UK. These courses are highly practical and hands-on using our state-of-the-art geological and geochemical laboratories for practical work. The courses are delivered through lectures, practical classes and fieldwork. A personal tutor and a network of student support departments and resources are also be available to you. You will be provided with a broad foundation in the geosciences, before specialising in specific subject areas in years two and three. The four-year MGeol course follows the same structure as the BSc (Hons) but provides an additional year for students wishing to expand further their research and analytical skills. The applications of geology are embedded into the curriculum, and you will receive regular presentations from professional geoscientists operating in the minerals, oil and gas sectors. You will have the opportunity to undertake a wide variety of research projects, working closely with our academic and technical staff. Our teaching staff are all active and recognised researchers. The fieldwork aspect of the course was fantastic, it was both educational and social, as well as a great opportunity to see some geologically and aesthetically beautiful places. William Smith BSc (Hons) Geology
