Career planning workshops take place in all years of study. In addition, there is a career planning module, which focuses on developing your awareness of jobs you can do with a Geography degree, recruitment processes, and your own subject-specific and transferable skills. The module also includes a short work placement. We work closely with careers advisers to ensure students get one-to-one career guidance and support.

You will have opportunities to network with employers and our own graduates through events on campus, online, and through our dedicated social networking site. This provides you with insights into the wide range of careers university Geography graduates enter.

Our geography degree graduates gain employment in a wide range of sectors such as planning, environment, transport, education, energy, insurance, and local government.

Examples of the roles secured by recent graduates include: Flood and Coastal Risk Management Officer; Sustainability Projects Officer; Graduate Transport Planner; Net-Zero Data Analyst; Geography Teacher; Graduate Planning Officer; Trainee Land Surveyor;  Graduate Geo-Environmental Engineer; Graduate Project Officer; GIS Technician; Researcher.
