Course summary

Geography explores the interaction between people and the natural environment. With over seven billion people on the planet, who all need food, housing and work, we are exploiting and, in many cases, damaging the natural environment. The challenge of the 21st century lies in sustainable development and raising living standards without causing irreversible damage to our environment. The A-Level Geography course is made up of both Physical and Human Geography topics. In Physical Geography you will study topics including tectonic processes and hazards, physical landscapes, geopolitics and climate change. Human Geography topics explore urbanisation, globalisation, cultures and societies and urban redevelopment. As a traditional academic subject, Geography is an excellent foundation for higher education and related careers including Environmental Consultancy, Architecture and Civil Engineering.
