Geography with Business - BA (Hons)

Our Geography with Business BA combines the best of both worlds: the study of physical and human geography alongside a selection of modules from the university’s triple-accredited Business School (AACSB, EQUIS, AMBA). You’ll explore topics of innovation, entrepreneurship and sustainability, while simultaneously diving into how we interact with our planet and how government policies can impact both businesses and people. During your studies, you’ll have plenty of opportunities to experience practical, hands-on geography in real-world settings. Our field trips take learning beyond the lecture hall, giving you the chance to apply your knowledge through immersive, on-the-ground fieldwork. In previous years, our trips have included visits to the Lake District, Italy and Mexico. Your future is at the heart of what we do. Through employability-focused modules, networking events and expert guest lectures, you’ll have the support to find the right career for you. Our past students have gone on to work in a variety of fields, including environmental roles, consultancy, teaching, sales, advertising and marketing, for organisations such as Amazon, the Civil Service, AECOM, Ocado and Aon (https:www.nottingham.ac.ukstudywithusugstudyarticlesexplore-more-articlessocial-sciencesshaping-a-successful-career-in-geography.html). The School of Geography is a leading centre for geographical research and training. You’ll have access to a range of facilities including dedicated laboratories, a computer room and a map library – all located within the geography building (https:www.nottingham.ac.ukgeographyaboutfacilities.aspx). Based on the beautiful, 300-acre University Park (our largest, Green Flag award-winning campus), you’ll also be close to central libraries and the Portland Building for the Students’ Union. The Business School is a short distance away on our Jubilee campus, with a series of lakes and a variety of wildlife. Broaden your experience by spending a year on placement in industry or applying to study abroad in countries including Canada, Sweden and the USA.
