Course summary

What this course is about

UCAS code: F840

Here's what Oxford Brookes University says about its Geography course.

Will you focus on environmental issues? Geopolitics? Do you dream of making a difference in the charity sector, or using your analytical skills to help businesses thrive sustainably? As one of the most versatile degrees you can study, geography opens many doors.

Studying Geography at Oxford Brookes turns you into a problem solver; an independent thinker; a specialist in your field – with a wide range of knowledge in everything from climate change to urban planning. With our field trips, specialist labs, and strong alumni network, we’ll help you build the skills and network you’ll need to succeed in your dream career.

In physical geography, topics include desertification, marine pollution, climate policy and biodiversity loss. In human geography, you could look at international governance, the political geography of borders, the future of cities, disaster management, or environmental hazards.

These topics are all deeply interlinked. You'll explore the connections between people and the planet, learn to understand complex global problems and make a difference in the world.
