Graduating with a degree in Environmental Science and Geography provides you with the skillset to engage in finding viable solutions to fixing some of the big challenges society currently faces. You will have developed sought-after transferable skills in key areas including field and laboratory skills, data collection and analysis, Geographic Information Systems, critical thinking, problem solving, team working and project management.

A work placement year between years two and three of your degree is a fantastic way to gain industry experience, helping you to stand out in the competitive job market. Employers seek to recruit individuals with high-level knowledge and skills in geography and business management who also understand the workplace. Placements provide an insight into what it is like to work in a specific area of the industry and allow you to familiarise yourself with the professional working environment and enable you to apply the skills and theory youve been learning.

Our foundation year provides an excellent alternative route to Keele, providing a unique opportunity to better prepare for your chosen degree, and with guaranteed entry onto your undergraduate course once you successfully complete your Foundation Year.

This extra year of study can improve your academic skills, expand your subject knowledge, give you a better understanding of higher education and, perhaps most importantly of all, build your confidence.
