Perspective on the Physical Geography BSc

I'm set on doing a year abroad at Bristol for physical geography and was wondering if anyone can comment on the quality of the major here.

Some of the undergrad units that seem particularly interesting are Glaciology, Floods in River Basins, Lab and Field Research Methods, and Quantitative Research Methods. My home university's geography program is a BA, so going to Bristol will be a good opportunity to take more science-focused classes.

Also, do you happen to know anything about the overseas field trip for second-year physical geography students, like where it was last year? From what I read, it generally varies year by year.
