Postgraduate study
The Department of Geography has a world-class reputation as a leading centre of geographical research. The community of around 120 postgraduate students are at the heart of this activity. We offer a range of taught and research orientated degrees that showcase the Department's strengths in human and physical geography.
The overall responsibility for postgraduate admission in Cambridge rests with Postgraduate Admissions, to whom formal applications must be made. Admissions for 2022 are now open.
Some advice to help demystify the applications process has been written by two of our PhD students.
The Postgraduate Office in the Department of Geography manages the admission process for PhD students and Masters/MPhil students, and oversees the development of the postgraduate Training Programme and the Masters/MPhil programmes.
Postgraduate Virtual Open Days will take place 1-14 November 2021. Please visit our dedicated Open Days page to find out more.
Videos about each of our programmes are available and, if you have any questions, please do contact us.
