Geography (9696)

The Cambridge International AS & A Level Geography syllabus has equal focus on physical and human topics with the opportunity to study them holistically during A Level study. Learners widen their knowledge and understanding of the subject, while developing their investigative abilities and their evaluation and decision-making skills.

The syllabus:

  • builds on skills and knowledge gained at Cambridge IGCSE (or equivalent) level study
  • includes contemporary topics which encourage students to recognise challenges of the changing world and builds awareness of how the study of geography can help us understand and solve environmental, social and economic issues
  • has six key areas at Cambridge International AS Level: Hydrology, river processes and hazards, Atmospheric processes and global climate change, Earth processes and mass movements, Population and migration, Water resources and management and Urban areas and management
  • encourages students to deepen their knowledge through a choice of four options at Cambridge International A Level: two from Global Environments and two from Global Themes.
