自然地理学是一门综合性科学，涉及大气，水圈，生物圈和地圈的过程和模式，以及人类与环境的相互作用。地质学研究地球的动力学，从45亿年前的地球起源到定义我们今天生活方式的过程。这两门学科在理解人类未来如何应对环境变化中起着重要作用。该学位由地理学院和地球与环境学院联合提供，结合了自然地理学和地球科学的研究。您将解决各种各样的问题，从未来的气候可能如何变化到河流集水区建造房屋的影响。同时，您将研究岩石和矿物的起源，地球生命的演化，火山作用，地质制图和地质自然资源的利用。<br> <br>您可以转换3年制学位在返
Physical Geography is the integrative science that deals with processes and patterns in the atmosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere and geosphere, and the interaction of humans and their environment. Geology investigates the dynamics of the earth, from its origins over 4.5 billion years ago to the processes that define how we live today. The two disciplines together have an important role in understanding how humans can deal with environmental change in the future. Delivered jointly by the School of Geography and School of Earth and Environment, this degree combines the study of physical geography and the earth sciences. You'll tackle diverse questions, from how the climate is likely to change in the future to the impact of building housing estates in river catchments. At the same time, you'll study the origins of rocks and minerals, the evolution of life on earth, volcanism, geological mapping and the use of geological natural resources. Our graduates are in demand for both their specialist and transferable skills. You'll build skills in presenting your ideas in reports and orally, in data collection, presentation and analysis, and in the investigation and computer simulation of environmental processes.<br><br>A degree from Leeds and the experience you'll gain here will give you the edge to find the career you want.
