Physical and Human Geography Research (MPhil/PhD)

University of Portsmouth

Undertake independent, original research in Physical and Human Geography, supported by academics working at the leading edge of the field. Investigate crises shaping our world and explore the roots and impacts of social and environmental uncertainty, from worsening inequality to climate change, and help identify ways to address them. The School of the Environment and Life Sciences supports postgraduate research in a range of topics, from climate change in mountain environments, geographies of youth smoking, and innovations in river restoration, to management of community water resources in rural Uganda, the use of social media in health campaigns, and reconstructing glacial environments. Join research designed to translate geographical understanding into practical responses to complex, real-world challenges.
