Mathematics helps you to take novel approaches to problem solving and make critical interpretations of data and text. Our programme has a carefully designed first year curriculum to make your transition from A Level to university as smooth as possible. This consists of a multi-layered student support structure and academics with considerable experience in teaching and examining, and providing useful feedback on coursework. 

This course explores the Earth's varied landscapes and the complex, potentially fragile, global systems that connect them. As a student at Keele you will learn about the rapidly evolving science at the heart of global environmental change and discover new ways of understanding. You will develop interdisciplinary perspectives, problem-solving skills and the ability to research, evaluate and synthesise information from diverse sources.

Our focus on climate change, global responsibility, sustainability, and the application of professional geographical skills to real-world situations will prepare you for a wide range of careers and for life as a responsible global citizen. What you learn here will equip you for future employment and for a lifelong appreciation of the world around you.

As a geographer, you'll develop a wide range of transferable and subject-specific skills that are highly valued by employers and are relevant to a broad range of careers including those in transport and planning and the environmental and retail sectors. They also provide ideal training for postgraduate study and research.

An extremely wide range of career paths are open to mathematicians, where high levels of mathematical ability are desirable. This can include industries such as finance, data analytics, teaching, engineering, medical statistics and management consultancy.

We place great importance on employability and on your future as a responsible global citizen. Our study-abroad option is a great opportunity to broaden your horizons and establish international networks that can also enhance employability.
