Geography - Structured

The wide menu of available options include modules that:



-are discipline-specific in that they augment the student’s existing knowledge in their specialist area, for example, in the area of climate change; biogeography; rural, population, or political geography

-are dissertation-specific in that they supply core skills which are essential to completion of the research project e.g. core research skills and techniques relating to specific data collection and interpretation requirements

-acknowledge a student’s professional development, e.g., presentation of papers at international conferences

-enhance a student’s employability through generic training e.g. careers workshops, computer literacy.



Each student will be assigned a primary Supervisor(s) and a Graduate Research Committee made up of experienced researchers to plan their programme of study and to provide on-going support to their research.
