The MLitt is an alternative to the PhD if you already have a masters degree and want to complete a substantial research project. You can complete an MLitt in most subjects offered by the Faculty of Arts, subject to approval and availability of supervision. You can further your research interests in the same subject as your first masters degree, or undertake research in a new area. An MLitt could be useful for a range of academic or professional careers, especially if you don’t want to undertake doctoral study. You can study Geography at postgraduate level in either Faculty of Science or Faculty of Arts programmes. Postgraduate Geography spans the full range of research interests in the discipline through a wide variety of advanced and specialised courses. These include: Physical and biological systems: climatology, hydrology, biogeography, and geomorphology Social, economic and cultural change: urban processes, policy formation, globalisation and its effects, political economy, or political ecology, health and well-being, regional and rural spaces Environmental management: environmental change, sustainable development, science and society relations Geographical Information Science (GIS): mapping and analysing information.
You need to have completed a masters degree in any discipline from a recognised university (or similar institution) with a GPE of 4.0 or higher.
