Bachelor of Science (Hons) in Geology (Applied Geophysics)

Program Overview

Harness your enthusiasm for science and learn the skills to tackle some of society's biggest environmental challenges. Keele’s Geology (Applied Geophysics) BSc programme develops your fundamental geology knowledge and skills while allowing you to gain in-depth expertise in applied geophysics techniques and their practical applications. This prepares you for a dynamic career as a geologist, a profession that is in high demand.  

Never studied Geology before? We've designed this programme to provide you with a solid grounding in the subject during year one, laying the foundation for advanced study in years two and three.

Your geology studies will include exploring the Earth’s origins, the evolution of life, and the exploration, extraction, and management of its natural resources. As an interdisciplinary subject, it draws on geography, environmental science, chemistry, biology, and physics. You will develop an understanding of Earth’s and other planets' structures and explore the physical, chemical, and biological processes occurring deep beneath our feet.  

The Applied Geophysics elements of the programme will focus on areas such as developing skills in geophysical research, examining the use of geophysics in geotechnics, ground engineering, geoforensics and environmental monitoring.   

We place a strong emphasis on developing practical skills, equipping you with the methods and techniques needed for future employment. You will gain hands-on experience using equipment, samples, and digital resources in our state-of-the-art Central Science Labs while gathering, analysing, and interpreting your own research data through residential and one-day field courses. There are study abroad and work placement options, and Keele’s campus serves as a ‘living laboratory’ with 600 acres of natural environment for fieldwork. From our lake system and extensive woodlands to the mining and industrial heritage of the local area, we offer opportunities to study in an authentic environment while practicing sustainability preparing you to thrive in your future career.
