Benefit from support to secure a paid placement enabling you to experience twelve months working in the type of organisation that you might aspire to join when you graduate. Geography is a distinctive subject. You will learn about the Earths landscapes, species, places and environment in a unique discipline that merges social science (human geography) with the natural (physical geography). Situated between the rural settings of the north and the bustling cities of Liverpool and Manchester, Lancaster's position enables us to explore some of the UK's most unique areas of geographic interest. You will gain a wealth of hands-on experience with field trips to places such as the Yorkshire Dales, Cumbrian coast and Lake District, as well as international locations such as Iceland, the Brazilian Amazon, New York and Croatia. You will develop a fundamental understanding of human, physical and environmental geography in your first year Geography modules. These modules equip you with a well-rounded introduction to some of the key themes in geography, as well as providing you with key skills used by geographers to analyse problems in both the human and physical aspects of the discipline. In addition, you will take a Placement Preparation module which provides guidance on writing your CV, finding a placement and interview techniques. Specialisation begins in second year, enabling you to choose topics that match your interests. Core modules will focus on practical work, giving you a range of analytical and research project skills, while optional modules feature exciting field trips to Spain and France. You will also take part in a work-based learning module designed to provide guidance and support as you apply for nationally advertised placements and help you gain the most from your placement year.

You will be offered further optional module choices, and there will be fieldwork opportunities in locations such as Iceland, the Amazon and New York.
