About this course

BSc (Hons) in Geography and Management, a business and management and geography degree bridging environmental processes and organisational leadership. Core topics include Statistics, Laboratory Techniques, Research Methods, Fieldwork, Project Management, Financial Analysis, Accounting, Marketing, Entrepreneurship, and Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning. Students can choose between a three-year full-time path or a four-year structure incorporating a professional placement year. An optional final-year dissertation allows students to investigate the connection between geographical study and management practices. The course begins with foundational studies spanning both disciplines, featuring compulsory modules such as Academic and Professional Skills for Geography, Unequal Worlds, Earth Systems, Principles of Finance, Organisational Behaviour, Practising Geography, Introduction to Accounting, and Management of Human Resources. During the second and final years, students deepen their business knowledge through compulsory modules including Organisation Studies, Principles of Marketing, Management Science Methods, International Corporate Governance and Corporate Sustainability, and The Marketing Mix, alongside strategic management in the final year. Optional modules across the programme allow specialisation in areas such as remote sensing, global migration, corporate finance, entrepreneurship, and project management.
