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

Discover how planet Earth works and how humans use physics to image its static and dynamic subsurface, from inner core to crust.

This University of Liverpool degree provides high-level training in geophysics with supporting geology, and includes fundamental university training in physics and mathematics. Students don't need to have studied geology before, and this degree therefore opens up a range of careers in geoscience. The programme provides particularly strong opportunities for careers in interpretation and processing of geophysical data (environmental, engineering, and exploration geophysics), and research areas related to geological applications.

The programme covers core topics in geology, geophysics and physics, plus a choice of advanced modules in geophysics. Major features include training in practical/applied geophysics, exploration geophysics (particularly seismology), planetary-scale geophysics and geophysical inverse theory.
