Course overview

Our Geology degree offers a broad education in the geosciences from the processes that govern the Earth's surface and interior, to the interactions between society and the Earth.

You'll study all the essential geoscience disciplines: the sedimentary, igneous and metamorphic origins of rocks and minerals; the evolution of life on Earth; plate tectonics and the structural deformation of rocks; natural hazards and climate change; geotechnics; geological mapping and fieldwork; the sustainable management of natural resources and the development of clean geoenergy.

There's a strong emphasis on applying your knowledge in the real world through practical hands-on learning and field trips, and you'll be equipped with all the geological skills necessary to understand and work in the modern world.
