EGS5040F - Special Topic In Human/environment Interactions

Course Outline:

Issues and themes in contemporary aspects of the Human/ Environmental interface will be covered. Specific attention will be given to profiling core debates in a specialist field of human or environmental geography. The course will focus on using theory, but will encourage the use of case studies. Course outcomes will emphasize the development of conceptual and analytical skills. At the NQF 9 level there is a strong emphasis on the development of analytical skills and students are expected to apply these skills in the context of an appropriate theory, to a case study of their own specialist field of human or environmental geography.
