Geography

Geography is the study of places and the relationships between people and their environments. Geographers explore both the physical properties of Earth's surface and the human societies spread across it. Geography seeks to understand where things are found, why they are there, and how they develop and change over time. 

The main themes of the new course are:

• geographical skills such as mapping and geographic information systems

• physical geography and ecology including weather, water and climate

• demography, development & sustainability, settlement

• people, their needs and organisations.
