MGeog Human Geography

From climate change to health inequalities, and from food security to natural hazards and disasters, geography is at the heart of many of humanity's greatest challenges. At Lincoln, we believe that meeting these challenges requires a focus on the unity of geography to understand the links between humanity and the environments we inhabit - a theme that runs through our teaching and research. The MGeog Human Geography Degree at Lincoln explores social science perspectives on issues of globalisation, sustainability, geo-politics, and cultural change, ranging from the local to the global scale. It encourages students to develop the analytical, critical, and collaborative skills needed to work across broad interdisciplinary issues. This course is designed to develop subject understanding and geographical skills progressively in the context of real-world problems, enabling students to apply their learning to contemporary global challenges, delivering a degree that is relevant to the global, environmental and societal challenges of the 21st century. A belief in the importance of interdisciplinary knowledge to address major issues is at the heart of our approach. Our academics are experienced collaborative researchers investigating key and emerging issues in global development across the spectrum of human geography and related disciplines. As part of our 'Student as Producer' initiative students can engage in research and project work that builds on the expertise of staff with undergraduates and academics to collaborating on research activities. This MGeog programme allows students to further their expertise in a chosen area of Geography and to develop their understanding of geographical debates in the context of other disciplines. It focuses on advanced geographical skills, exposing students to contemporary interdisciplinary debates at the cutting-edge of the field, and enables students to pursue their research interests by completing an original research project that they report in a journal-style article.
