"The research programme at the UCD School of Geography provides students with just the right structure to guide us through the early period of topic development and literature exploration while also allowing flexibility and room for students to step into their own as academic researchers as they progress their research. The coursework requirement is well designed to enable students to take courses from any School within UCD so that we can tailor this to our skill and knowledge needs. With friendly academic colleagues and a core support group of other research students and postdoctoral fellows, students can enjoy stimulating conversations and build their networks across both human and physical aspects of geography. I've thoroughly enjoyed my time at UCD Geography so far, having made great friends and been inspired by the research of our growing team."
