By studying Earth's internal core, crust, oceans, atmosphere, and the solar system, we can gain a better understanding of how our planet works.

In this course, you'll combine traditional observational and field skills with numerical and analytical fundamental science to understand the Earth more quantitatively.

You'll benefit from our internationally leading research programme, as well as lectures and case studies from business and academic leaders.

You'll also have the opportunity to explore specialist areas such as palaeobiology and oceanography in further detail across a series of optional modules.

Our courses place a strong emphasis on fieldwork, where you'll learn essential skills and apply your knowledge in real-world settings.

In your final year, you'll also complete a research project or dissertation in an area of your interest.
