Geography is a broad synthesizing discipline that studies humans and the Earth by focusing on the themes of place and space. Geography is therefore not an encyclopedic listing of capital cities, mountains and rivers, but rather an understanding of the causes, effects, implications, and importance of these and other features. As Geography is so broad, it is often studied as a number of separate but closely related sub-disciplines, notably physical geography and human geography, and also regional geography (Area Studies), topical geography and geographic techniques (Geomatics).

Interesting courses and unique opportunities

• Place, Populations and Mobility: Geographic Perspectives
• Social Geography of the Environment
• Animal Geographies
• Food Geographies
• Gender and the Human Environment
• Children's Geographies and the Geographies of Young People
