Field Class Schedule 2024-25

There is a strong emphasis on field training in all earth science degree programmes. Some destinations may vary from year to year, and specific dates depend upon booking availability.

Fieldwork Schedule

In-field transport is provided and accomodation. Students are expected to pay for food/flights/transport to and from the fieldtrip. This excludes the Independent Mapping which has a £700 bursary.


We use the ES Virtual Fieldwork material as an additional resource. Current students please follow detailed information provided by trip organisers.
