Requirements

Applied and experiential learning

Students benefit from an inter-cultural and interdisciplinary context provided by their peers and their teachers. You will expand your skill set through applied and experiential learning, including local and European fieldwork, hands-on practicals, field investigation & evaluation of case studies, role-play, debates and engagement with professional practitioners.

Supportive & small group-learning

We offer a supportive and small group-learning environment that encourages students to challenge policies, theories, debates and data related to spatial processes and practices. To achieve this, students undertake a mix of individual or collaborative activities that build upon the latest qualitative, quantitative and mixed-methods geographical analysis.

Focus on fieldwork

Fieldwork offers students an enriching and inspiring opportunity for problem-based and collaborative active learning.
