GEO3000 Urban Exploration

Aims/Description: This module offers students a chance to explore urban geographies from new angles, which emphasise creative, experimental and subversive ways of seeing and doing geography. Through readings and seminars, students will be exposed to experimental fieldwork ideas and methods. This module will include a residential fieldclass in a UK city, during which time students will conduct individual fieldwork projects, whilst also engaging with fieldwork collectively.

After this point we will close the module to new students, and if you Drop this module at a later date, you might be subject to any cancellation fee we incur.
