Master of Arts (Honours) - Geography, Society and Environment

专业介绍

The Geography, Society and Environment degree is designed for students who are interested in human geography and related topics in urban design, social policy, cities and modern studies. Overall, this degree explores the ways in which people shape and are shaped by the places and environments in which they live. How do cities change and how do the people involved shape those cities and neighbourhoods? How does the built environment shape humans behaviour? What makes some places healthier or happier or more resilient?

Students will develop field work skills in surveying, mapping and site assessment with field work and site visits as a key strand in their learning. Students will develop important research skills through core modules in statistics, data analysis and research methods which they will apply to their final year research dissertation. Cross-disciplinary and problem-based working helps students acquire the skills needed to work in multi-disciplinary teams and solve real-world problems.

Students can participate in residential field trips in years 1, 2 and 3, visiting locations in Scotland, the UK and beyond; plus shorter one day trips and site visits. These trips provide important opportunities to deepen practical skills in field survey, site observation, data collection and analysis.

Students can experience links to practice and industry – hearing from visiting speakers and professionals working as chartered geographers, surveyors and planners. In year 3, all students are given the opportunity for mentoring by a practitioner, someone working in industry who can discuss career choices, graduate job opportunities and professional membership routes.
