Course Overview

Geography is the study of the Earth and the link between physical and human landscapes. It explores the inter-relationships between people, places, and the environment and how these vary across and between places. Archaeology is the study of our past and the remains that humanity has left behind. Our BA (Hons) in Geography and Archaeology considers both the present and the past from a humanities and social science perspective, focusing on issues including patterns of land use, planning and development, sustainability and globalization, and heritage and tourism, to examine human relationships with the environment both today and in the past. 

A degree in geography and archaeology provides you with the knowledge and skills to understand many aspects of our rapidly changing world, equipping you to tackle real-world problems in a range of organizations and sectors, with a wide curriculum developing both specialist and transferable skills. 

Geography and archaeology graduates are among the most employable, with skills developed in presenting ideas in reports and oral presentations, in data collection and analysis, and in the use of specialist mapping and statistical software.  

The knowledge and skills taught in this course are of relevance to many areas of employment, including renewable energy; energy efficiency; cultural heritage management; travel and tourism; rural and community development; agriculture; local government; planning; logistics; and environmental agencies. A significant number of graduates also move on to careers in finance, marketing, and law, or to further postgraduate study, teaching, and research.
