| What it is | Geography studies how people, culture, economics, and environment shape places and regions around the world. In this program, you focus on human geography — looking at cities, migration, inequality, and society rather than physical landforms or climate systems. It suits students curious about why the world is organized the way it is and interested in understanding global issues through a social and cultural lens. | 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. |
