Bachelor of Science (Honours) in Geological Oceanography

A three year honours degree in marine geology, covering seabed processes, marine sediments, geophysical survey, ocean basins, sea going fieldwork and a final year project.

Bangor runs this as both a three year bachelor and a four year integrated master, and the longer route reaches master level a year sooner than studying both separately.

Bachelor of Science (Honours) in Geological Oceanography is taught at Bangor University, a public university in Wales with full degree awarding powers. Because the geological oceanography degree is a degree, it supports an application under the UK Graduate Route, which gives two years of unsponsored work in Britain after you finish. No job offer or sponsor is needed for the geological oceanography degree, but you must be inside the UK on a valid student visa when you apply. Your student visa covers the length of the geological oceanography degree plus a short period afterwards. UK rules from January 2024 bar a dependant partner or child on taught courses, so the geological oceanography degree does not support a family move.

Bangor charges no application fee, and no scholarship is recorded against the geological oceanography degree. The geological oceanography degree lists only two entry windows a cycle.
