Pursue your ambitions in sport and exercise science with the BA (Hons) Geography (with placement year) at Loughborough University. Based in Loughborough, England, this programme combines theoretical knowledge with practical application, with a 4-year full-time structure. Geography is the integrated study of landscapes, peoples, places and environments and is, therefore, a vital subject through which to increase understanding of our rapidly changing planet. Through the interlinked strands of human and physical geography, the discipline bridges the social sciences and natural sciences. Our BA degree provides a broad foundation of human and physical geography in Year 1 and then allows you to increasingly specialise in human geography, or maintain a balance of human and physical geography, in subsequent years. International tuition fees are £29,750 per year, home/UK fees are £9,535 per year, and a minimum IELTS score of 6.0 is required for admission. Graduates from this programme benefit from strong career prospects, with 93% student satisfaction rating, a median graduate salary of £30,500 within three years, a 96% continuation rate, and 80% of graduates in employment or further study.
