This in person workshop is aimed at Year 12 geography students who are considering studying geography at university.
Students will hear from a university admissions tutor and current geography undergraduates about what it's like to study geography at university. The session will support students with making an informed choice about choosing a geography course that best suits them.
The workshop will include an interactive session to help students navigate the UCAS process. To end the session, students will get to experience a short taster lecture to get a feel for geography at university level.
