Applied Geography

Description

Geography is uniquely placed to bring knowledge and understanding to this dynamic world, helping to resolve environmental and social conflicts that prevent us from managing our environment in a sustainable fashion.

Applied Geographers have the knowledge, tools and skills to help resolve these conflicts and play an essential part within a multi-cultural world in which understanding, tolerance and sensitivity are fundamental to social and economic well-being and to the good management of our natural environment.

At Bournemouth we offer one of the few Applied Geography courses in the country and the course is designed to enable you to develop and apply your geographical skills to real world issues preparing you for employment. This course has a strong component of Geographical Information Systems, which is becoming one of the most important geographical skills and is essential for Applied Geographers.

The course offers both practical and field based experiences including opportunities for research related fieldwork along the Jurassic Coast, the Isle of Wight and the New Forest.
