Geography
In the first year of our BSc (Hons) Geography and Sport Science degree, the geography modules span human and physical geography, ensuring you have a firm understanding of how social and physical processes vary within the context of places and regions. In the second and final year of this course, you can specialise in either human or physical geography or you can choose to maintain an equal balance between the two.

In Geography and Environment, our academic staff are driving forward intellectual agendas in physical and human geography, as well as helping to shape national and international policy. This expertise ensures that the knowledge you are getting throughout your course is at the cutting-edge of scientific research and focused on some of the most important issues in society today.

Sport Science
From this course, you will also develop a theoretical, critical and practical understanding of sport science with the help of the School of Sport, Exercise and Health Sciences. The sport science modules focus on developing your knowledge of physiology, physical activity and health, psychology, sociology and pedagogy. The knowledge gained in the sport science section of our Geography and Sport Science degree will support a variety of careers in sport, health and/or education.
