Courses at the top of the range are usually the laboratory and studio ones, and a course with a year in industry or abroad is charged differently for that year. Ask us and we will confirm what the course you choose actually costs.

Overview

This page covers Environmental Geoscience across the departments we work with, including what each asks for and what it charges. It is a three year undergraduate degree, with the specialism widening as you move through the years.

Teaching in Earth Sciences is assessed through practical reports as well as written papers, and the lab component is what makes the timetable full. We currently work with 11 universities on this course across 10 cities.

The lowest English requirement we hold on this course is IELTS 6.0, and departments asking more than that usually expect a stronger academic record too. Tuition ranges from £27,720 to £33,210 a year depending on the department, which is a real difference over the length of the course.

Applications open around a year ahead of the intake. Getting the documents together early is what keeps the September date realistic.

Careers opportunities

Laboratory research is only one of the routes out of a science degree and it is the one with the fewest posts. The larger destinations are industry, analysis, regulation and teaching, and a placement year is the single strongest thing on a science graduate's application.

Roles graduates go into

Research or laboratory scientist
Analytical or quality scientist
Technical or scientific officer
Data or research analyst
Regulatory affairs officer
Science teacher, with a teaching qualification

Where they work

Pharmaceutical, chemical and manufacturing companies
Contract testing and analytical laboratories
University and institute research groups
Government agencies and regulators
Environmental and public health bodies

After the course

A research post normally needs a doctorate, and a master's with a substantial project is the usual route into one. Chartered scientist status is the alternative for those staying in industry.
