WHY EARTH SCIENCES?

HELPING YOU MAKE SENSE OF THE WORLD!


There are many good reasons to study Earth Sciences at University:
Learning about:

The Environment


Sustainable Development
Earth
Climate Changes

..and other issues that affect our lives, now and in the future..

..is essential in the modern world. Geography - with its focus on people, places and environments and their interconnections and change - is central to such learning, and much more besides.

Geography is unique in bridging the social sciences and humanities (Human Geography) with its understanding of the dynamics of societies, cultures and behaviour, and the environmental sciences (Physical Geography) and its understanding of physical landscapes and the dynamics of environmental processes acting at the Earth’s surface. The interaction between people and the environment and its resources is one of the areas that lies at the heart of the discipline and is essential to the understanding and the management of the world today.

Without Geography you are …….NOWHERE!
