Postgraduate Field Trips
Postgraduate fieldtrips are an often-overlooked component of the BSRG programme, yet they have generated some of the best discussion and enjoyment in the past. The fieldtrips provide an opportunity for postgraduate sedimentologists to broaden their field experience, to network with their peers, and to discuss theories and interpretations of 'classic' field areas.
Upcoming Field Trips
More information coming soon.
Stay tuned!
Future field trips will be advertised on our mailing list and this website.
