- Population, migration, conflict, development, global crime, health, and aging. These present some of the most pressing social challenges of this century, are inherently geographical in nature and are the focus of the BA Geography degree. With this world view, breadth of content, and the development of an extensive range of research skills, Geographers continue to be one of the most sought-after graduates across a vast range of employment sectors.
- There is also the opportunity to spend a semester in Year 2 at partner Universities in Canada, the USA, or New Zealand. Beyond the conventional 3 year degree and 4-year placement version, Gloucestershire is the only University in the UK to offer Geography in a fast-track format. On this accelerated degree students will graduate in 2 years. There is also flexibility to switch to the three or four-year degree options at the end of Year 1 of fast-track if they wish.
