Our research encompasses both theoretical and applied studies in democracy, justice, technology, and religion. We seek to re-examine fundamental geographical concepts, addressing urban and regional challenges, public-private dynamics, nation-state development, and worldwide trends. Our researchers collaborate across the UK, Europe, Africa, Asia, and North America, with support from funding bodies including the AHRC, ESRC, ERC, and Leverhulme Trust.

There's no more crucial moment to pursue geography studies, regardless of your professional goals. Pressing global concerns like climate change, migration, ecological decline, and societal unity not only dominate contemporary political discourse but are also central to geographical scholarship, establishing it as one of today's most pertinent academic disciplines. A Geography PhD from the University of Exeter equips graduates with highly sought-after capabilities including data analysis, critical thinking, project management, technical writing, public speaking, and collaborative skills. Most doctoral candidates gain valuable teaching experience, further enhancing their professional competencies.
