“Without Geography you are ……

NOWHERE! “

Aim

The aim of the Geography Department is to introduce students to the ‘big issues’ facing us today and to enable them to have informed opinions in a rapidly changing world.

 

Objectives 

Through the study of Geography the student should:-

v     acquire knowledge about locations and develop a sense of place

v     understand the important characteristics of the earth’s physical systems

v     appreciate the interaction of human activities and physical environments

v     have an awareness and appreciation  of human diversity

v     acquire a range of skills and competencies necessary for geographical study

In a rapidly changing and increasingly fragile world the Geography Department will prepare students to make informed decisions on issues such as:-

v     environmental responsibility

v     increasing global interdependence

v     cultural understanding and tolerance

v     the globalisation of commerce, trade and industry

v     development and underdevelopment

Our students will also leave with a range of transferable skills which can be utilised in the world of further study or employment.
