Ni fu erioed amser gwell neu bwysicach i astudio daearyddiaeth.
Mae daearyddiaeth yn eich helpu i wneud synnwyr o'r byd o'ch cwmpas.
Mae'n canolbwyntio ar astudio nodweddion ffisegol y ddaear a'i hawyrgylch, yn ogystal ag effeithiau gweithgaredd dynol. Mae hyn yn cynnwys yr effaith ddynol ar yr amgylchedd, dosbarthiad poblogaethau ac adnoddau, a gweithgareddau gwleidyddol ac economaidd.
Gan bod daearyddwyr yn delio â’r byd naturiol a sut rydym yn ymddwyn ynddo, gall eu swyddi fynd â nhw i bobman, o gymryd samplau pridd ar ymyl llosgfynydd i fapio tref newydd, olrhain y newidiadau i rewlif yn yr Arctig, neu hyd yn oed ymarfer gyfraith amgylcheddol mewn ystafell llys. Mae daearyddiaeth hefyd yn ddefnyddiol mewn seryddiaeth, cadwraeth natur, cynaliadwyedd a phensaernïaeth.
Yn ôl y Gymdeithas Ddaearyddol Frenhinol, mae gan raddedigion Daearyddiaeth rai o'r cyfraddau uchaf o gyflogaeth i raddedigion. Mae cyflogwyr wrth eu bodd â'r cymysgedd o sgiliau technegol a chymdeithasol a gaiff pobl o astudio daearyddiaeth, y maent yn eu hystyried yn drosglwyddadwy iawn.
Mae daearyddiaeth yn cyfuno'r byd dynol a'r byd ffisegol, gan ganiatáu i chi ehangu i'r celfyddydau neu'r gwyddorau yn nes ymlaen.
There has never been a better or more important time to study geography.
Geography helps you to make sense of the world around you.
It focuses on the study of the physical features of the earth and its atmosphere, as well as the effects of human activity. This includes the human impact on the environment, distribution of populations and resources, and political and economic activities.
Because geographers deal with the natural world and how we behave in it, their jobs can take them everywhere, from taking soil samples on the edge of a volcano to mapping a new town, charting the changes to a glacier in the Arctic, or even practising environmental law in a courtroom. Geography is also useful in astronomy, nature conservation, sustainability, and architecture.
According to the Royal Geographical Society, Geography graduates have some of the highest rates of graduate employment. Employers love the mix of technical and social skills people get from studying geography, which they see as very transferable.
Geography combines the human and the physical worlds, allowing you to branch out to the arts or the sciences later on.
