Biogeography (with Foundation Year) BSc (Hons)

This is a four year degree taught at our ** campus. The Foundation Year aims to develop your skills so that after a year, you will be equipped with the necessary skills needed for studying the full BA Hons degree programme.Biogeography is the study of living things in space and time (including geological time). It involves an evaluation of the patterns and processes of plant and animal distributions; their diverse spatial patterns; and, the physical and biological processes contributing to these patterns at a variety of scales and over time.This degree involves an interdisciplinary study of environmental geoscience,geomorphology, ecology, biodiversity and environmental change. A key focus is on how biodiversity varies in different ecosystems and at different spatial and temporal scales; and, how it is perceived, measured and governed. This interdisciplinary approach is essential for the understanding, management and conservation of biodiversity and ecological communities.
