Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Geography

专业介绍

Program Description

This course takes an integrated approach to studying the relationship between people and the physical environment. Students are typically concerned about the Earth and its communities, and the course explores the key role that geographical concepts and techniques have in solving environmental problems, social inequalities and improving the quality of life and well-being. Nottingham Trent University aims to produce geographers with a lifelong passion for the subject and to equip them with the knowledge and skills to contribute to society and move with confidence into their chosen career.

With its focus on environmental geography, the course explores the interaction between people and the environments in which they live. Concepts of place, space and time are used to explore peoples, cultures, landscapes and environments across the world and the crucial links between them. The course emphasises the need for sustainable development, social justice, the impacts of the global climate emergency and the exciting opportunities provided by the rapid development of geospatial technologies.

The course allows students to specialise in their second year of study and beyond with the Physical Geography pathway. A range of optional modules also offer students the opportunity to personalise their degree to their own interests. Students will graduate with the knowledge and skills needed to solve a range of complex environmental problems.

Topics this course covers include:

• Managing natural hazards and disasters
• Agriculture and food security
• The global climate emergency
• Sustainable development
• Natural resource management
• Inequality and social justice
• GIS and remote sensing
• Renewable energy
• Land degradation and desertification

These are all areas where geographers make a significant contribution to understanding, decision-making and policy development.
