What it is	A BA in Geography covers the physical Earth — landforms, climate, ecosystems — alongside human systems like culture, economics, and cities. You'll study both natural processes and how people shape and live in different places. It suits students curious about why the world works the way it does and interested in solving real-world problems across environment and society.	You study the social systems, policies, and psychology behind why people struggle — poverty, mental health, family breakdown — and learn to help them through direct support work and advocacy. This program awards both a university degree and a Social Service Worker diploma, so you graduate certified for entry-level positions in shelters, community agencies, and schools right away. It suits people drawn to hands-on helping work who want practical credentials alongside academic learning.	You study how the natural world works alongside the human systems that affect it. The BES focuses on environmental policy, conservation, and sustainability through social and geographic lenses, while the BSc emphasizes the physical science side: geology, ecology, and environmental processes. Both paths suit people interested in solving real environmental problems through either policy and community work or scientific research and analysis.
