地质学（荣誉）理学士

地质学是对脚下世界的研究-如果您想真正了解地球，地貌和生命如何在数十亿年间发生了变化，就可以选择该课程。地质与地球的起源，结构，组成和历史以及形成地球的物理，化学和生物过程有关。毕业后，您将了解相关的科学原理以及如何将其应用于大量的地质问题。您将探索各种主题，包括如何描述，分析和解释岩石，火山是如何形成的，冰河时代是如何产生的，山脉是如何形成的，如何寻找石油和天然气以及5亿年前的英国是什么样的。我们的地质课程强调应用地质，因此您将学习工作场所的重要技能，包括地理信息系统（GIS），地质制图和地质材料分析。
Geology is the study of the world beneath your feet - it's the course to choose if you want to really understand how the planet, the landscape and life have changed over billions of years. Geology is concerned with the Earth's origin, structure, composition and history, as well as the physical, chemical and biological processes that have formed it. By graduation, you'll understand relevant scientific principles and how to apply them to a huge range of geological questions and problems. You'll explore diverse topics, including how to describe, analyse and interpret rocks, how volcanoes are formed, how ice ages originate, how mountains form, how to search for oil and gas, and what Britain was like 500 million years ago. Our Geology course emphasises applied geology, so you will learn vital skills for the workplace, including geographical information systems (GIS), geological mapping, and analysis of geological materials. We pride ourselves on offering some of the most extensive fieldwork of any UK university geology course, at locations in the UK and overseas, which currently include Azores and Spain.
