This specialisation in geochemistry combines a comprehensive background in earth science with a body of knowledge in chemistry and a range of skills necessary for careers in geochemistry and related areas.

What you'll learn

• Have demonstrated narrower knowledge and understanding in a further field of study that is typically at a level that, whilst supported by advanced textbooks, includes some aspects that will be informed by knowledge of the forefront of environmental geochemistry, GC1
• Can apply their narrower knowledge and understanding in a manner that indicates a professional approach to the field, and have competencies typically demonstrated through devising and sustaining arguments (to both specialist and non-specialist audiences) and solving problems within environmental geochemistry, including using digital technologies, GC2, GC3
• Can gather and interpret relevant data within environmental geochemistry to inform judgements that include reflection on relevant social, scientific, or ethical issues, including being aware of the diversity of international perspectives associated with environmental geochemistry, and how these impact upon the practice of the field, GC4, GC5
• Display a high standard of professional behaviour, including effective time management, both independently and as a team member, GC6
