Here at the Department of Earth and
Planetary Sciences, we have a
fascination about how our planet and the
universe work.
We're lucky as we get to study this
every day,
working to understand volcanoes and
earthquakes all over the world,
understanding past and future climate
changes on earth
and the study of deep history through
paleontology.
We work on the latest space missions
interrogating data from recent probes to
planetary bodies
throughout our solar system. This means
we can offer a fantastic experience to
our undergraduate students.
While we expect no prior knowledge, by
the time you complete your degree
you will have all you need to explore
your own career in earth and planetary
science, embedded with the latest research
including the chance to work on these
data for yourselves.
Our degrees are offered full-time over
three years or part-time over four to
six years
and we have a number of Certificate
courses for those with more specific
interests.
We have been delivering lectures in
London since 1840.
Always with a focus on providing an
accessible environment for anyone,
recognising that for many people a
traditional degree
may not work for them. This led us to
embrace
distance learning in the late 1990s.
Now through cutting-edge online platform
you can take our degrees
through attending class in London,
completely online from anywhere in the
world,
or through a mixture of the two. This
approach means we can fit our degree
around your busy lifestyle
rather than the other way around.
Of course,
as we teach geology and planetary
science, chances for field work are
common
with trips to Wales, Greece, Morocco and
the Canary Islands taken as part of our
course.
If you find our degrees interesting
