Graduate Diploma of Learning and Teaching - Primary

at Massey University - Manawatu Campus New Zealand

In the Bachelor of Arts (Geography) you’ll study how we interact with our cultural, social and physical environments. Geography is a diverse and dynamic subject. It covers issues such as

• Sustainability
• Urban development
• Globalisation
• People’s lived experiences of their environments.

Geographers like to get out into the field to study the world as it really is. They use a variety of tools, including geospatial mapping technologies.

Stage one of the BA Geography includes both human and physical geography.

• Human geography looks at how social processes affect space, place and landscape.
•  Physical geography looks at how natural landscapes take shape and change.

You will gain a solid foundation for understanding our world as the product of a combination of social and natural processes. More advanced courses expand on the themes established at stage one. You can specialise in human geography, or include more advanced geospatial and physical geography courses as well.

Sociology seeks to understand and describe our own local society and the wider global setting. It is among the most fundamental of the social sciences, with perhaps the broadest scope. There are sociologists interested in virtually all aspects of the social world. It goes beyond surface appearances in an attempt to find out how things really work. Sociologists ask many questions. What divides or unites social groups? What causes the inequalities we see in society? How does power actually operate?
