LevelBachelors Program
  • The Oxford Geography degree focuses on the interrelationships between society and the physical and human environment
  • Students are introduced to the full range of geographical topics in the foundational courses, which they can then follow up in more detail in the optional papers
  • There is considerable emphasis on interdisciplinary approaches in the course, with opportunities to explore the cross-fertilization between Geography and other disciplines such as anthropology, sociology, history, political science, economics, earth sciences, and biology
  • In the first year, all students take part in a four-day physical geography field trip at the start of term, as well as local skills-related field days
  • Second-year students will undertake a week-long overseas residential field course (currently to Berlin and Tenerife). Independent research in the field or in archives is also a key element of the dissertation with around 30% of our undergraduates choosing to do their dissertation overseas each year
