Course summary

This flexible course gives you the opportunity to combine Geography with Gaelic Studies, allowing you to explore how people, places and environments interact, alongside the history and contemporary relevance of the Gaelic language and culture. In your first two years, you will gain a broad foundation in both subjects. In your third and fourth years, you will specialise in areas that match your interests and reflect staff research expertise.
