This integrated degree programme provides a clear view of the controlling processes that link landscape evolution with the underlying geology and investigates the consequences of environmental change and natural events that impact on human activity; training includes comprehensive study of surface and near surface processes, relevant to many industrial, engineering and environmental employment sectors; practical training is an important component of the programme and involves considerable fieldwork including courses in south east France (year 2) and south east Spain (year 3) that examine the geological evolution of sedimentary basins and their subsequent erosional dissection by geomorphologic processes; a research-based dissertation is undertaken in year 3 on a geological and/or geomorphological topic; the programme is recognised under the 'Accreditation of Geoscience First Degree' scheme of the Geological Society of London, satisfying the requirements of Fellowship and Chartered Geologist status.
