Geography

Course summary

Geographers are excited about the world in which they live and develop a valuable understanding of the physical and human processes which shape our planet. If you want to answer questions such as, ‘What are the issues caused by unequal flows of international trades?’, ‘How will the world cope with a projected population of 10 billion?’, or ‘How would a supervolcano eruption affect our planet?’ then A Level Geography is the subject for you. Geographers are numerate, literate, and good team workers. You will develop a knowledge of social, economic and physical processes, and be able to plan, research, develop and test hypotheses, and write reports. You will learn to think analytically and critically, and develop valuable computer skills. You will practice a variety of fieldwork skills via the range of trips we offer, which have included Greece, the Azores, Italy and Croatia.
