**Overview**<br/><br/>Our Geophysics degree is designed for curious minds eager to explore the dynamic forces shaping our planet. Geophysics merges the power of physics, mathematics, and earth sciences, offering you a unique opportunity to make a real impact on the changing world.<br/><br/>What happens inside a volcano? How can we forecast earthquakes and mitigate the impact? Why do we experience extreme weather? How can we make the transition to sustainable and secure energy? With a geophysics integrated master’s degree at UEA, you’ll explore geophysics at an advanced level in the context of the entire Earth system. This program is designed for curious minds eager to explore the dynamic and forces shaping our planet. You’ll study the Earth’s many processes, from the seas and skies to the deep interior, and learn about the way they shape our environment. You’ll have the choice of a significant range of diverse modules, with a particularly strong emphasis on geophysical hazards and geo-resources for a sustainable future.<br/><br/>Plus, you’ll spend a year living and studying at one of our partner universities in Australasia, North America or Europe.<br/><br/>Geophysics offers practical solutions to some of the most significant challenges facing our planet, such as environmental sustainability, resource exploration, and natural hazard assessment. At UEA, you’ll develop key geophysical skills through exciting fieldwork and interdisciplinary study. The degree will unlock a wide range of career paths, from working in environmental consulting and energy exploration to contributing to future-shaping research in academia. Geophysics graduates from UEA are highly sought after in industries. UEA is one of the best places to study it – we are ranked in the top 20 for Geophysics by “QS World University Rankings by Subject 2023”. <br/><br/>This four-year course will inspire a lifelong understanding of the way the Earth works. You’ll explore how the whole Earth system, and its interactions, shape our environment.<br/><br/>As part of this degree programme, you’ll have the opportunity to spend your third year studying and living abroad with one of our university exchange partners in Australasia, North America or Europe. Going to a university in another country is an unmissable opportunity to experience other cultures and lifestyles and will give you the chance to study within a department where different aspects of geophysics are taught.<br/><br/>You’ll engage in a significant amount of fieldwork in various geological environments. You’ll develop practical skills that are in high demand across industries. During your field courses, you’ll learn to use a variety of state-of-the-art geophysical instruments and software, including seismic, electrical and magnetic imaging tools, ground-penetrating radar, and advanced modelling techniques.<br/><br/>At the School of Environmental Sciences, you’ll benefit from a broad choice of subject material offered by our experienced and passionate faculty members who are actively involved in ground-breaking research. You’ll have the chance to specialise in your field of interest to an advanced level. You can tailor your degree towards geological geophysics, geohazards, meteorology and climatology, or oceanography – or study a combination of them all. You can also learn about how to manage big data from techniques such as remote sensing, using advanced techniques including machine learning, and artificial intelligence (AI).<br/><br/>**Disclaimer**<br/><br/>Course details are subject to change.
