2.5-Term Pathway - Foundation Certificate for Science and Engineering - Continue to Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Geography

Program Description

This University of Liverpool BSc degree addresses important questions about whether the planet’s natural resources are able to sustain an increasing population, how physical earth systems respond to human activity and changing climate, how humans manage resources, and how we live with environmental change. 

Many people who take the Geography BSc (Hons) programme choose physical geography modules, which are more scientifically based. However, the full range of human geography modules is also open to students and the flexibility of the degree allows students to shape their own programme of study. This means that students can either specialize in physical geography or study both physical and human geography as part of a BSc degree. Students can also take up to two 15 credit modules per year from other subjects so they can maintain an interest in another discipline as part of their BSc Geography degree.

In Year Three, students will complete a dissertation, which brings together the skills and techniques they have learned in the degree to produce an independent piece of academic research. There are also opportunities for overseas field study.
