Today we've taken level 4 @NUGeog BSc and Physical geography students for a stroll in beautiful Cheviots. We discussed origins of the landscape and how humans interact with it. The weather was great and our new cohort was stellar! ⛰️☀️🌲🌳🐑🎓 Looking forward coast trip tomorrow!

It takes lots of work from colleagues across @NUGradFutures teams (& other @NorthumbriaUni teams) to deliver events like today’s Part-time Jobs Fair. We can’t control the weather, but hearing the buzz of many conversations and seeing +ve feedback makes it worth it! #nucareersfair
