This new and innovative degree programme allows students to combine the study of Geography with International Development. The degree builds knowledge and practical skills that can be applied to global challenges such as poverty and inequality, climate change, conflict and migration, as well as topics such as media constructions of the South. Students study Human and Social Geography, and can also select from modules which relate to Environmental Geography and Development Geography. The degree offers practical skills training useful for future employment, on Project Design, Management and Financial Planning, and Geographical Information Systems. Students also have the opportunity to take a work placement in the UK or another country. Other study options include development economics, social anthropology and public policy. We aim to produce skilled graduates that are equipped to do well in range of employment settings or in further study.
