Fourth year fieldwork

Fourth-year students have the option of an overseas field course, where you will use multidisciplinary data to unravel complex geologic relationships and the evolution of a region. There will also be the option of a UK-based field course.

Advanced field course - Overseas

This is the culmination of your field studies. We visit a region of outstanding geological interest and explore its geological evolution. Recent trips have been to the Alps and to Sicily and the School varies the area from time to time. You will need to use all your existing field experience and research skills to get the most from this module.
