The Geography and Environmental Studies major offers a diverse set of courses that range from a more traditional liberal studies focus to units that concentrate on developing industry-specific knowledge and skills. Geography is a broadly based, integrative discipline where units may have humanities, social science or natural science foci, or some combination of these approaches. This major includes Environmental Geography units because the Geography discipline also deals with environmental issues that are more contempoary in nature and are aimed at improving our ability to manage the environment more effectively. Geography students will develop a unique set of knowledge and skills that are not only useful in a wide range of careers, but can play important roles in helping studetns to make sense of the world around them, including current events and future trends.
Students who wish to complete a Geography and Environmental Studies major are required to complete eight units (two of the three level 1 units plus six advanced level units) from those listed below.

The Literary and Cultural Studies major brings together two distinct but complementary disciplinary approaches: literary studies where literature is read for its own sake and for the values it reveals in stories, poems and placys about our lived and imaginery experiences; and cultural studies where ideas and concepts derived from a broad study of culture are explored through a variety of texts including film, media, television, advertising and the like. Both disciplines examine the assumptions used to support the way that meaning is made across a range of texts and in a variety of contexts.
Literary Studies students will be able to demonstrate advanced reading and writing skills; to apply critical thinking and advanced modes of textual analysis to a broad range of texts, genres and media; to communicate using cogent, discipline-based and context-relevant research; and to participate, both self-reflexively and ethically, in discipline critical debates.
Students wishing to complete a Literary Studies major are required to complete eight units (nromally two level 1 and six advanced) from those listed. Students studying to be English teachers as part of an education degree need to consult the advice given to students studying for these courses BEFORE they choose their 'English' units.
