Honestly the best course I could find. Especially in first year where you had your major and then could take a minor

Some lecturers don't teach their material in an interesting way and therefore it is extremely boring sometimes, good amount of contact hours, some modules are very boring and not sure how to use them to get a job. One of my tutors last year was amazing

Geography, BSc Hons
Some modules have been disappointing but I'm sure it'll pick up next year.
Geography, BSc Hons
I love my course, it has only increased my passion for my subject.
Geography, BA Hons
Not good, geography didn't appeal to me but to those who are more interested in geography and that can motivate themselves to read for it then this is the perfect degree. Those who are looking to do a single geography (ie. Physical/human) should so a single part so you aren't forced to do them both!
Geography, BSc Hons
LEC has some very good field tips, good overall teaching quality and varied subject matter, most to my taste, some not so much.

Economics and Geography, BA Hons
Compulsory modules and a large choice of optional modules. Can shape your degree to what you’re interested in.

Feels like you're taking up tutors time, not very helpful. The course content is good but feel like they give too much reading, and not enough in the lectures. Careers fairs are always science and technology, very few directly related to Geography. Value for money is awful. Lectures are only 50 minutes long, and at present, only have 7 'hours' a week, less than 1 full school day. Feels like we're paying for nothing. Only given £1 printing credit, very few copies of core texts in the library, not always online and university bookshop sells books at extortionate prices

Geography, BSc Hons
Potential to be an interesting course, but some very obscure concepts that don’t seem to be related to geography. Feels very much like a name for a topic which is basically just biology/chemistry/physics/geology in physical geography, and sociology/economics/politics in human geography. Doesn’t feel like it’s own discipline, rather an over arching collection of disciplines under the name “geography”
Geography, BSc Hons
While dedicated careers events for geography would be useful, I loved the course, made great memories and made the most of great opportunities. The teaching far outranks those at Manchester uni
Geography, BSc Hons
Great teaching and resources
Geography, BSc Hons
Course has been okay. Core modules in first and second year were generally not great or well organised (ie 101 and 210). Third year has been the best for choice but still not a lot of modules to choose from even on the most basic geography scheme. Teaching standards vary- some lecturers are super helpful and genuinely care about helping you achieve the best you can, whereas others couldn’t care less. Academic tutor system doesn’t work. You’re paired randomly, so most of the time your tutor is not working in the same area you are studying. I’ve seen mine 4 times my entire time at university and he couldn’t remember my name or which year I was in.
Geography, BSc Hons
Very well taught. The first year you sort of have to bear with all the core modules and try to find out what aspects of the course interest you most in order to really tailor your degree in second and third year. There is a lot of scope for doing this. And by having a major/minor degree scheme you can dip your toe in another subject.
