Why study Geography?

Geography is dynamic. ‘There has never been a better or more important time to study Geography. With growing interest in issues such as international conflicts, environmental degradation and social cohesion, Geography is one of the most relevant courses you could choose to study. Whatever your passion for the world – fascination with landscapes or concerns about inequality – Geography will provide you with knowledge and transferable skills that will reward you personally and advance you professionally.’ (Dr Rita Gardner, RGS- IBG) There is a natural progression from GCSE and you will have the opportunity to develop fieldwork skills and study geographical issues and impacts.
