| Dr Urška Demšar, Dr Fernando Benitez-Paez | This unit will introduce students to the basic principles of spatial analysis. | Module Page |
| GG4228 - Advanced Topics in Geographic Information Science (GISci) | Dr Urška Demšar | Students will learn how to use advanced GIScience methods for applications in human and environmental geography, including spatial statistics methods, methods for analysis of movement and/or other contemporary developments in GIScience. | Module Page |
| GG4255 - Geographies of Urban Housing | Dr Charlotte Van Der Lijn | This module has two main aims: to develop substantive knowledge and theory about urban housing with an emphasis on European policies at different scales; and to look more closely at the links between housing and planning (in its widest sense) to develop data handling and visualisation skills. | Module Link |
| GG3210 - Remote Sensing | Dr TJ Young | This module focusses on using satellite remote sensing data and techniques to quantify and study characteristics and changes at the Earth surface. | Module Link |
| GG4257 - Urban Analytics: A Toolkit for Sustainable Urban Development | Dr Fernando Benitez-Paez | This module explores the intersection of urban analytics and sustainable development, focusing on using Python to analyse and visualise urban data. | Module Link |
| SD2005 - From Sustainable Development to Human Security | Dr Fernando Benitez-Paez | This module builds on the core material of SD1000 and SD1004 of SD Year 1. SD Year 2 explores sustainable development and human security (semester 1) and sustainability and nature (semester 2). | Module Link |
| GG4298 - Single Honours Research Dissertation in Geography | Dr Urška Demšar, Dr Charlotte Van Der Lijn, Dr Fernando Benitez-Paez | The research dissertation is the fundamental piece of independent research work upon which the Geography degree is based. It provides students with the opportunity to design and undertake an independent, original piece of empirical research under the supervision of a member of staff. | Module LInk |
| SD4124 - Sustainable Catchment Managment | Dr Craig Smeaton | This modules offers a holistic science-based approach to co-manage coastal environments. Introducing the science underpinning contemporary environmental issues at the land-ocean interface allows for the exploration of the multiple issues in the practice of sustainable catchment management at a local and international scale

| GG2011 Geographies of Global Change | Dr Charlotte Van Der Lijn, Dr Fernando Benitez-Paez | Thinking 'geographically'; about the physical and human dimensions of global change in the areas of human inequality, paleoecology, biogeography and population geography offers particular insights into the dynamic processes and interactions shaping our changing world. | Module LInk |
| SD2100 - Sustainable Scotland | Dr Charlotte Van Der Lijn | Sustainable Scotland" draws on Scotland's unique landscapes, patterns of urbanisation, and the geography of population to examine interrelated issues of land use and social inequalities to the broader questions of sustainability here in Scotland. | Module Link |
| SD1004 - Sustainable Development Goals: Challenges & Opportunities | Dr Fernando Benitez-Paez | SD1004 offers a detailed investigation of a selection of core issues in SD and of how these issues are addressed by key players. Utilising the UN's Sustainable Development Goals as a framework, the module is organised around five thematic clusters. | Module LInk |
