Course summary

By studying Earth's internal core, crust, oceans, atmosphere, and 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. These experiences will help you learn essential skills as you apply your knowledge in real-world settings. The fourth year of study culminates in a substantial research project, an advanced module, and a field trip as you reach Master's level.


Professional accreditation

This degree leads to a Master's level qualification and is professionally accredited by the following organisation:- The Geological Society. With a professionally accredited degree, you’ll be able to demonstrate to employers that you have achieved an industry-recognised standard of competency. Professional accreditation also provides international recognition of your qualifications, which you can use to launch a career abroad. Our MSci courses in Earth Science also reduce the number of years of post-graduation experience you need in order to register as a Chartered Geologist (CGeol). This is a highly respected qualification earned by professionals working in the geosciences industries, and can help you to enhance your career prospects and earning potential.
