Statistics for employability consistently show that geography graduates are highly employable, working across a wide range of sectors and roles.
The directory is a guide to geography in higher education in the UK, with information on:
Which universities offer geography-related courses in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland
Links to the relevant department web pages, which include the most up-to date information about each course
Which institutions have at least one programme currently accredited by the Society.
In previous years, the Society biennially published the book Directory of University Geography Courses. Since 2005, this information has been published online.
