Coastal Communities and Regional Development is an international, multidisciplinary master’s program on the development of rural and remote areas in the past and in the future.

The SP2ARK - Space Plasma Propulsion: Advancements, Research, and Know-How Seasonal School will introduce participants to the topic of plasma-based electric propulsion (EP), which represents an enabling technology for a growing number of space applications, from low Earth orbit constellations to interplanetary missions. Interest in EP systems has accelerated in recent years, thanks to the technological maturity achieved by several concepts and the growth of a new space economy.

The BSc Physical Geography and Oceanography programme ensures research & practice-led studies of the physical environment with a special focus on the marine environment. The main aim of the programme is to prepare highly qualified specialists who are able to creatively apply the acquired knowledge of geo-information technologies and physical geography in the fields of the marine environment, land management, and environmental protection.

The Master of Science in Geography degree program trains young professionals in areas of human and physical geography, while building on students’ working knowledge of geospatial techniques. With a faculty-to-student ratio of 1-to-2, our graduate students have exceptional mentorship and research opportunities.

A Doctor of Philosophy in Geography offers an in-depth exploration of the spatial patterns and processes that shape the physical and human environments. This advanced degree equips scholars with the tools to study the dynamic relationships between people, places, and landscapes, incorporating insights from areas such as human geography, physical geography, environmental studies, and geospatial analysis.

Geography is a discipline that integrates the environmental and social sciences. Geography studies location, places, regions, human-environment interactions, and movement. Its tools include cartography and geographic information systems (GIS). On the job, Geography graduates address social, physical, and environmental problems from the global to the local scale.

This programme provides you with a rigorous grounding in social theory and mainstream debates and techniques in human geography. It also offers a thorough training in qualitative and quantitative methods. Options allow for the development of specialisms in historical-cultural themes, postcolonial and decolonial geographies, spatial modelling, and debates surrounding environmental conflict and science and technology.

If you want to achieve a BSc in Human Geography and Planning (Former: Human Geography & Urban and Regional Planning), Groningen is a perfect choice. The strength of the program lies in its combination of five fields: Economic Geography, Real Estate Studies, Population Studies, Cultural Geography, and Planning. There is an open atmosphere and it is easy to contact other students and lecturers.

The MPhil and PhD programmes offer rigorous training in advanced geographical research. Students work closely with world-class faculty on independent research projects across a wide range of disciplines, including climate change, water resources, urban and transport geography, and geospatial science.

A Master of Science in Geography provides a comprehensive understanding of the complex relationships between people, places, and the environment, offering students the tools to analyze spatial patterns and processes across local, regional, and global scales. This degree covers a broad range of topics, including physical geography, human geography, environmental change, and geographic information systems […]

Geography BSc trains geographers who have advanced theoretical and applied geographic knowledge; they are able to analyze the spatial and temporal correlations of the natural, socio-economic and urban environment, to synthesize results, and to gain knowledge in their academic field independently.

The MSc in Geospatial Data Science is a cutting-edge programme that merges geography with data science. It offers advanced training in spatial statistics, programming, big data analytics, and remote sensing. The programme is tailored for students who wish to master the tools and techniques required to analyze complex spatial data for decision-making in government and industry.

The Master of Arts in Geography emphasizes the application of geographic skills, methods, and theory to problem solving in contemporary society and provides students with a strong foundation in spatial, locational, and planning theory, research methods (quantitative and qualitative), and Geographic Information Science and Technology (GIS&T).

This BSc (Honours) in Geography and Environmental Science degree will help you understand and consider responses to urgent environmental challenges, including climate change, globalisation, development, biodiversity loss, migration and urbanisation. It takes a holistic approach, combining geography and environmental science.

Are you curious about how the decisions we make about land and resources affect the natural environment? Or how the distribution of natural resources drives human activities? Geographers study how humans interact with the environment, often using digital technologies, and solve problems in order to build a more sustainable world.  A degree in Geography can help you

Are you curious about how the decisions we make about land and resources affect the natural environment? Or how the distribution of natural resources drives human activities? Geographers study how humans interact with the environment, often using digital technologies, and solve problems in order to build a more sustainable world. A degree in Geography can help you:

GEO students study the crucial interactions between humankind and the biophysical environment. They obtain a holistic understanding of our world and the fieldwork/research tools needed for a wide range of local, national, and international career opportunities, including environmental planning, natural resource management, and social policy development.
