理学士（荣誉）地球物理学专业

本课程在整个地球系统的背景下探索固体地球地球物理学。您将研究地球的许多过程，从海洋，天空到深层内部，并了解它们控制环境的方式。您还将有机会花费一年的时间在您选择的公司中获得宝贵的经验。第一年将为您提供所需的科学工具，包括数学和力学，而第二年和最后一年将使您能够专注于各种研究领域，从应用地球物理学和气象学到全球构造学和地球物理危害。您的第三年将用于安置。
Course Overview Our Geophysics degree with a placement year is designed for curious minds eager to explore the dynamic and forces shaping our planet. Geophysics merges the power of physics, mathematics, and earth sciences, offering you a unique opportunity to make a real impact on our changing world. This programme explores questions such as: What happens inside a volcano How can we forecast earthquakes and mitigate the impact Why do we experience extreme weather How can we make the transition to sustainable and secure energy With a geophysics degree at UEA, you’ll explore geophysics in the context of the entire Earth system. You’ll study the Earth’s many processes, from the seas and skies to the deep interior, and learn about the way they shape our environment. You’ll have the choice of a significant range of diverse modules, with a particularly strong emphasis on geophysical hazards and geo-resources for a sustainable future. You’ll also have the opportunity to spend a year gaining valuable experience on a work placement. Geophysics offers practical solutions to some of the most significant challenges facing our planet, such as environmental sustainability, resource exploration, and natural hazard assessment. At UEA, you’ll develop key geophysical skills through exciting fieldwork and interdisciplinary study. This degree will unlock a wide range of career paths, from working in environmental consulting and energy exploration to contributing to future-shaping research in academia. Geophysics graduates from UEA are highly sought after in industries. UEA is one of the best places to study it – we're ranked in the top 20 for Geophysics by “QS World University Rankings by Subject 2023”. This four-year course will inspire a lifelong understanding of the way the Earth works. You’ll explore how the whole Earth system, and its interactions, shape our environment. You’ll engage in a significant amount of fieldwork in various geological environments where you’ll learn to use a variety of state-of-the-art geophysical instruments and software, including seismic, electrical and magnetic imaging tools, ground-penetrating radar, and advanced modelling techniques. You’ll also develop practical skills that are in high demand across industries. Check out this solar water pump start-up project, founded by UEA graduates. You’ll also spend a year on a work placement which will increase your employability and give you the opportunity to put your learning into practice. At the School of Environmental Sciences, you’ll benefit from a broad choice of subject material offered by our experienced and passionate faculty members who are actively involved in ground-breaking research. You’ll have the chance to specialise in your field of interest to an advanced level. You can tailor your degree towards geological geophysics, geohazards, meteorology and climatology, or oceanography – or study a combination of them all. You can also learn about how to manage big data from techniques such as remote sensing, using advanced techniques including machine learning, and artificial intelligence (AI).
