Kingston University Geography Programs

Geography-related environmental subjects have been taught at Kingston University for over 70 years. They draw upon a wide range of research expertise, from human and physical geographers, GIS specialists, geologists, geochemists, hazard specialists and environmental scientists.

They have invested substantially in the development of laboratories for teaching and research into subjects such as environmental monitoring, geology, geochemistry, mapping / GIS/computing facilities, and specialist instrumentation laboratories (e.g. nuclear metrology; laser Raman spectroscopy; 3D mapping).

Their core course offers a focus on geography, human geography and environmental science with an optional hazard pathway. All their courses are accredited by their associated professional body. Their philosophy is to bring active research into the classroom and provide a learning experience based on real-world scenarios and problem-based techniques: promoting employability at all levels.
