Geography explores Earth's surface as the setting for human life and activities. It examines variations in both natural and human-made environments and the connections between them. This program holds accreditation from the Institute of Environmental Sciences and the Royal Geographical Society
Our setting:- positioned in a city rich in culture and history, near some of the planet's most breathtaking scenery, provides exceptional opportunities for studying both human and physical geography. Fieldwork is essential to Glasgow University's Geography program, with all students participating in residential field trips to the Scottish Highlands and Mallorca, ensuring a well-rounded educational journey. Geography is available as one of three degree options within Arts, Science, or Social Sciences. While the Geography curriculum remains consistent across these degrees, the distinction lies in the supplementary subjects available during the first two years. Those pursuing Honours will join a week-long residential field course in year 2, building on earlier field, lab, and statistical training through group projects, data gathering, analytical challenges, and presentations. This preparation advances in year 3 with an international field class centered on dissertation research.
Alumni have secured roles as coastal and river engineers, outdoor education instructors, community outreach coordinators, and marine surveyors, working with organizations like the Scottish Government, British Red Cross, Transport Scotland, Scottish Water, SEPA, and SNH.
