Bachelor of Science in Geology

Program Overview

Our Geology degrees provides a broad training in the geosciences, from the structure and history of our planet and life on Earth, to the natural resources that geologists need to manage for a sustainable future. Every rock tells a fascinating story: perhaps it was formed in a volcano, preserves dinosaur remains, or a rare mineral with high-tech applications. Our Geology degree helps you piece it all together to arrive at a profound understanding of our planet and the role of the geoscientist in today’s world.

The first year lays the foundations by introducing you to the full spectrum of geoscience topics, including the rock cycle, palaeontology, natural resources, and geological mapping. You will undertake a field class to the beautiful Isle of Arran in Scotland where you can put into practice everything you have learnt on campus. In the second year you will develop your skills further, and deepen your understanding of key concepts. In the third year you can develop specialist expertise and focus on the topics that most inspire you. You can choose optional modules to reflect your developing interests, and take field trips to UK and overseas locations.
