Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know — if you can't find your answer here, get in touch with our admissions team.

Students study both physical geography (rivers, coasts, weather, tectonics) and human geography (population, settlement, economic development). The course also includes map skills and data interpretation.

While traditional fieldwork is challenging online, students complete geographical investigations using real-world data, satellite imagery, and virtual fieldwork tools. These develop the same analytical skills.

Assessment is through written examination papers testing knowledge of physical and human geography, including map reading, data interpretation, and extended writing on geographical processes and issues.

Yes, Geography bridges the sciences and humanities. It develops analytical, numerical, and essay skills, making it an excellent complement to both science and arts subjects.
