More information about this Course
Introduction
Your AS / A Level geography course will cover both the physical and human
environments and the complex interaction of processes that shape our world. It
will also, importantly, show the applied side of the subject - how human
intervention affects the environment and how people adapt and mitigate the
effects of processes on their environment.
There is plenty of room for discussion and extended research, which will help
you become an independent thinker and learner. By the time you get to your
exams, you will be able to show your understanding of a range of opinions and be
able to illustrate your answers with case studies from local, national and
international examples.
Many A Level students do not yet have a clear idea of what kind of career
they might want to pursue. If you are in this position, remember that geography
as an A level gives you the chance to keep your options open, as it covers both
arts and science components.
Geography is an obvious choice for careers in:
Sustainability and green issues
Urban regeneration
Energy supply
Retail location
Managing the effects of hazards and climate change.
