Earth Science with Year in Industry BSc Honours (F646)

The degree is similar to our Earth Science BSc Honours, but includes a year in industry to advance your academic knowledge with practical work experience.

Earth science covers everything from the formation of rocks and minerals to the impact of human activity on the environment. You'll study the Earth at the molecular, micro- and macro-scale, from the chemistry of a single element to the processes that shape the continents.

Your key areas of study include:

• geology
• geochemistry
• geomicrobiology

Understanding how these areas interact and combine to create the complexity of the Earth system is what makes Earth science a fascinating area to study.

The practical skills you develop in geomatics – the fourth element of the degree – allow you to collect and analyse data about the world. This prepares you for diverse and in-demand careers.

Regular field days and residential field courses allow you to experience the Earth in action. You'll develop practical skills and network with Earth science professionals.
