The Geography and Environmental Sciences programme offered by the University of Birmingham  is specifically designed for projects that involve laboratory-based research.

Postgraduate students in the school benefit from a vibrant research community, expert supervision, dedicated training, and opportunities to engage in seminars and discussions.

Career opportunities

The university helps research students to produce publications arising from their work and encourage them to publish as single authors when appropriate. Many research students are aiming for academic careers and we recognise the importance of providing opportunities for them to be involved in teaching and tutorial work, without compromising their obligations as research students.
