The BSc Landscapes & Society provides a unique interdisciplinary combination of natural and cultural perspectives on the formation, cultural significance and management of the landscape. Students will bring together the archival strengths of History, the spatial expertise of Geography, and the material analytical approaches of Archaeology to develop understandings of how the landscape shapes humans at the same time as humans shape the landscape.
Students will learn in the classroom, field, laboratory and archives. The programme has clear links to the expanding Heritage sector and students will develop a range of transferable skills.
