Geography

The Geography BSc line offers a full 3-year education in Geography. The study program offers a complete education in geography, with special directions in landscape and environmental studies, regional and settlement development, and also in tourism. All three directions are supported by a strong GIS basis. The program provides a general bachelor’s level education in geography. It includes introductory modules in natural and social sciences, geology, and geography. The core of the program is based on fundamental issues, including topics in physical, human, and regional geography. Advanced courses can be chosen from the topics offered for the special directions. Besides the compulsory courses, students have to choose optional courses to help them in their specialization. The courses usually consist of two parts: a lecture and a problem-solving seminar, each worth 1 to 4 credits, depending on the nature of the topic. The bachelor’s course in geography is the basis for the Master (MSc) line of applied geography with a special focus on the BSc specializations plus Geomorphology and GIS, available at our university.
