Studying Geography at Churchill College

All societies rely on their relationships with each other and on the physical environment. Increasingly these are fragile interdependencies presenting intellectual and practical challenges of the highest priority which are central to the problems of modern Geography.

The Cambridge Geography course is one of the most diverse undergraduate degrees. It emphasises the interactions between the human and physical sides of the discipline and consequently requires both breadth of ability and flexibility of approach. As an undergraduate geographer, you’d be encouraged to engage actively in the intellectual and practical challenges of the subject. During your first and second years, you’d be required to study both physical and human geography, but you can specialise in the third year if you wish.

Full course details are provided on the Department’s Prospective Undergraduates webpage and the University’s Undergraduate Study webpage.
