Course summary

Geography is the study of the Earth and the link between physical and human landscapes. It explores the inter-relationships between people, place and the environment and how these vary across and between places. Our BA (Hons) Geography considers these links from a humanities and social science perspective, focusing on issues such as land use, planning and development, globalisation, climate change, energy, and tourism, in order to examine human relationships with the environment. This course will provide you with the knowledge and skills to understand many aspects of our rapidly changing world, enabling you to tackle real-world problems in a range of organisations and sectors, and with a broad curriculum, created to develop both your specialist and transferable skills. Geography graduates are among the most employable: you will leave the course with highly transferable skills, such as: demonstrating ideas via reports and oral presentation data collection and analysis and the use of specialist mapping and statistical software. The knowledge and skills taught in this degree are of relevance to many areas of employment, including: renewable energy energy efficiency waste management tourism rural and community development agriculture local government planning logistics and environmental agencies. A significant number of geography graduates also move on to careers in finance, marketing and law, or to further postgraduate study, teaching and research. Please note this course is delivered entirely online and available to study from anywhere in the world. Applicants out with Scotland including International, should apply to the UHI North, West and Hebrides study location.
