This degree programme allows you to study not only the solid earth, but also how the whole earth system and its interactions control our environment.
You will study the skies, seas and the Earth's deep interior, examining the surface to discover how the Earth has developed into what is seen today. The course allows you to develop a quantitative, physical understanding of the whole earth system alongside the processes that control our environment.
Taught within the School of Environmental Sciences, the degree programme enables students to choose a multidisciplinary path of study, stressing the links between wide-ranging subjects, from solid earth geophysics to oceanography. The course also benefits from our strong links with local and multinational companies. The UEA is situated in close proximity to the North Sea, which means all our students are invited to visit the facilities of local geophysical companies and carry out practical work using industrial data and software.
Geophysics graduates from the UEA’s School of Environment Sciences are highly employable, gaining a wide range of skills that are highly-prized by employers. Many have gone on to work for various local and multinational companies within sectors including geophysical exploration and services, geotechnical engineering, risk analysis, environmental consultancy, amongst many.
