BSc Geography

Course Overview

Students on this degree learn through a combination of lectures, seminars, workshops, practical classes, tutorials, fieldwork, group projects, student presentations, and self-directed learning, such as research, reading, and writing. All of these are informed by the interplay between theory and practice. Seminars, tutorials, and practical classes are much smaller groups than lectures, small enough to allow one-to-one interaction with our academic staff. Practicals also allow hands-on experience of the work professional geographers undertake. The same is true of fieldwork, which at Durham is heavily subsidized and consists of engaging in geographical work in the field with members of academic staff. Students can also attend an extensive program of research-focused seminars where staff and visiting scholars present their cutting-edge research.
