Overview

Our Geography (Hons) degree at York St John University offers a wide ranging approach to the subject, and you will study everything from social and cultural geography to ecosystems and landforms.

Our emphasis is on practical learning, taking you out into the world and bringing the world into the classroom.

We make the most of the region around us, from the historic city of York to the rugged landscapes of Yorkshire. Our course normally includes a residential field trip in each stage of the degree, taking you further afield in your second and third year to investigate other environments and cultures.
