Course summary
Join a University ranked #1 in the UK for 'Geography and environmental studies' research (THE analysis of REF 2021) with an excellent reputation for teaching and learning (UK top ten for 'Geography & Environmental Science', Complete University Guide 2023). The innovators of the 21st century will think across arts, science, engineering, humanities and enterprise to deliver innovative products, services and ways of living. They will be team players with a breadth of skills and qualities that enable them to work across specialisms and cultures. This course combines in-depth subject specialism at the University alongside interdisciplinary, practice-based learning. In conjunction with your geography studies, you will apply your subject knowledge by translating ideas into innovative solutions, which may include plans for digital and creative enterprises, both social and commercial. The course will equip you with skills in the use of specialised computer software, statistics, data collection in the field and other critical, theoretical and practical skills central to geography, developing your knowledge and expertise across a range of areas. Group work is a core component of teaching and learning in Innovation. You will come together with students from other innovation disciplines, such as computer science, physics and anthropology. Each subject contributes a different perspective on a challenge as you identify needs and develop ideas. By drawing on your unique ideas and views on the world, you will learn from your subject and other students to develop innovative solutions together. You will also develop personal skills with opportunities for individual development and pursuit of topics and projects driven by your own interests and values. By the time you graduate, you will have a portfolio of work ranging from live client projects to planning your own entrepreneurial venture. You will have learned how to evaluate the potential of products and services, and how to sustain new endeavours including through financing. Importantly, you will have cultivated a network of peers and advisers who have worked with you through your studies.
