Bachelor of Science in Geology

Program Overview

Geologists are at the forefront of tackling modern global challenges across all sectors of the economy and providing the critical expertise required for a low carbon future. For example, in the Net Zero transition, geologists are key to securing the critical metals that underpin technological solutions for projects that will deliver clean energy, water and sustainable food supplies. From resource exploration to civil engineering, natural hazard mitigation, energy security and fundamental scientific research, geologists are in high demand across multiple sectors of the modern economy. The ever-increasing need to de-carbonise our economy and live more sustainably on our planet means that demand for geologists is only going to grow in the future.

Our Geology BSc will equip you with a deep understanding of the Earth system, learning how the landscape was sculpted over hundreds of millions of years by the collision of continents, the emergence of life, and the erosive power of ice sheets. By applying that knowledge to Earth resources, or hazards like volcanism, earthquakes and climate change, you’ll learn how to tackle crucial geological problems.

At Leeds, fieldwork is an integral part of developing your knowledge and understanding of the Earth and how it functions as a geologically active planet. Throughout your course, you’ll visit a range of classic geological locations on day trips and residential field classes, in the UK and beyond. You'll develop skills in observation, analysis and independent working that will serve you well in any chosen career.

You’ll be taught by academics with a wealth of expertise across the broad spectrum of geoscience disciplines. Once you graduate, you’ll be a skilled geologist ready to help solve the key challenges that face humankind and secure the future of our planet.
