Fieldwork
Fieldwork plays a vital part in our teaching programme. Our research training modules are supported by numerous fieldwork exercises conducted in a range of rural and urban settings, from the South coast of England, to the East End of London.
In addition, students in the second and third year may apply to participate in a number of specialist modules that involve longer, overseas field classes. Destinations currently include Los Angeles and Las Vegas, Dublin and Belfast, Iceland, and the Florida Everglades.
