What is Joint Honours?

With joint honours, you can study for an honours degree in two or even three subjects. Find out more about joint honours.

Outdoor Recreation

This Joint Honours course is based at Buxton in our dedicated centre set in some of the most dramatic scenery in the UK. The course includes regular opportunities to hone your outdoor skills whether your passion is climbing, canoeing, kayaking or caving. You'll also have the opportunity to study wilderness skills and National Governing Body Awards.

Countryside Management

This is not all wellies and spades - you will get the opportunity to use the latest technologies, such as wikis, blogs, podcasts and audio trail MP3 recordings, to help you to get the most out of your outdoor practical experience.

During your course you will write countryside management plans using case studies, and you have examples to show potential employers.
