Geography, BA Hons FullTime

The modules were very varied with lots of different topics to study. The members of staff as a whole are very good and are approachable however there are some who struggle to engage with students leading to a series of dull lectures.

Great university, mostly helpful staff apart from some impolite and impatient ones. A little bit of unpreparedness on this degree programme's structure, since it was a new one when I started, but the topics we are dealing with are incredibly interesting. The degree itself is definitely a game-changing one for the environment. read more

A very friendly department. There are a wide range of modules for you to get your teeth stuck into, so whatever your interest you'll find something you love! Pastoral support has always been great in the department and staff are friendly and willing to respond to any queries. You also have a field trip, usually to Tenerife, in your second year which is covered by your tuition fees. There are also options to go to Switzerland or Cambodia in the third year, Switzerland is particularly affordable and a course highlight. Wholly recommend. read more
