Extend your knowledge in your specialist area at postgraduate level with our honours programme. The Bachelor of Science (Honours) programme involves one year of full-time study, or two years of part-time study, after you have completed the requirements for the Bachelor of Science. After graduating with a BSc (Hons), it’s possible to progress to a Master of Science (MSc) degree. If you achieve First or Second Class First Division Honours in your BSc(Hons), you’ll be eligible for direct entry to a PhD. Geography: You can study Geography as a postgraduate specialisation in either the Faculty of Science or Faculty of Arts programmes. If you are an aspiring geologist and physical geographer, you can explore themes in climatology, hydrology and biogeography and fundamental concepts in geomorphology and learn about mapping and analysing information using GIS. Or, you may want to concentrate on human geography and delve into understanding how different views and attitudes influence people's interactions with the environment, globalisation and its effect, and environmental management. Areas of research interests open to exploration include: Physical and biological systems Resource management Economic and social structures Spatial organization Cultural landscapes and geographical information science Bachelor of Science (Honours) (BSc(Hons)) in Geography 15 points: GEOG 701 Research in Practice At least 60 points from: GEOG 711 Emerging Economic Spaces GEOG 712 Land, Place and Culture GEOG 714 Population, Mobilities and Wellbeing GEOG 715 Development and New Regional Geographies GEOG 717 Contemporary Issues in Human Geography GEOG 718 Urban Worlds GEOG 719 Geographies of Housing and Urban Change GEOG 725 People, Participation and Development GEOG 730 Climate Change: Past, Present, and Future GEOG 737 Policy and Expertise GEOG 738 Future Food and Biological Economies GEOG 739 Research Topics in Geography GEOG 745 Applied Fluvial Geomorphology GEOG 746 Applied Coastal Geomorphology GEOG 748 Current Issues in Coastal Management GEOG 749 Climate and Society GEOG 759 Research Topics in Geography GEOG 760 Directed Study in Geography GEOG 761 Special Topic GEOG 770 GIS and Spatial Data Handling GEOG 771 Spatial Analysis and Geocomputation GEOG 772 Advanced Raster Data Analysis GEOG 773 Visualisation and Cartography GEOG 774 Advanced Spatial Data Handling GEOG 779 Programming, GIS Customisation and Web-mapping EARTHSCI 705 Geohazards EARTHSCI 713 Tectonic Geomorphology EARTHSCI 732 Reconstructing Environmental Change ENVMGT 741 Social Change for Sustainability ENVMGT 742 Social Dimensions of Global Environmental Change ENVMGT 743 Environmental Policy ENVMGT 744 Resource Management ENVMGT 746 Collaborative Environmental Management ENVSCI 704 Modelling of Environmental Systems ENVSCI 713 Air Quality and Atmospheric Processes ENVSCI 737 Applied Terrestrial Ecology ENVSCI 738 Water and Society A further 15 points from 700 level courses in a related subject: Earth Sciences, Environmental Management, Environmental Science, Geography 30 points: GEOG 789 Dissertation
