Introduction to Graphic Communication

This module introduces the essential principles of the Graphic Communication programme and gives you the opportunity to understand and examine the key skills and working methods required for your studies at Higher Education. As well as engaging in practical activity you will learn how what you create is enhanced by critical thinking and contextual knowledge. You will be introduced to key techniques and processes and develop knowledge and understanding that will inform and underpin all learning communities in the programme. This will include learning skills in design, type, motion, illustrative and image practices. You are likely to develop new and exciting skills and knowledge in areas which you may not have previously explored. This module will also give you opportunities to gain critical and practical confidence as well as experience new ways of thinking through making.

Introduction to Hearing Science and Technology

This module provides you with a deep understanding of the fundamental science and technology underlying clinical hearing assessment and rehabilitation. It will include a foundation in the epidemiology of hearing loss, the biology of the hearing system, the psychology of sound perception, the physics of sound, the principles of hearing technology and how those areas inter-relate. These subjects will be taught with a strong emphasis on their relevance to audiological assessment and rehabilitation. No assumptions are made about your background in these except that you completed maths and science at GCSE level or equivalent. This module works closely with Biopsychosocial Basis of Audiology, which provides you with a more general introduction to neurobiology, psychology and other relevant themes. This module also works with Biopsychosocial Basis of Audiology to provide you with a series of sessions on academic skills across the year in order to support you make the transition to undergraduate study in a scientific discipline.

ARCH1077

Introduction to Historical Archaeology

In a common analogy where the c.4.5 billion years of Earth's geological history are equated to a 24-hour day - modern humans appearing only within the last 4 seconds - written human history begins only in the last 100 milliseconds. That time, though, saw major shifts in human behaviours. Archaeological investigation of societies that habitually read and write has its own characteristics and challenges: the presence of written records changes how scholars have engaged with the past, providing hugely detailed information across diverse spheres of activity, but also tending to devalue and undermine the autonomy of the material record. This module will introduce you to the archaeology of historical periods, and the range of human societies, with and without writing, that existed from the advent of text at the end of the 4th millenium BCE. We will critique the historical tendency to privilege written sources over material ones, and demonstrate the range and diversity of archaeology's contributions to our understanding of societies from the ancient world to the present day.
PAIR1001

Introduction to International Relations

Explore the forces that shape our world by studying the structures, actors, and policy-making processes of international relations. This module equips students with the knowledge and skills to assess and apply competing theories of world politics, and to discuss great matters of international concern. Learning activities are designed to encourage students to propose and debate solutions to real-world problems related to security, human rights, global political economy, international development, the environment, war and peace, and migration. The module provides an opportunity for students to strengthen their research skills, to become critical thinkers, and to evaluate and advocate big ideas for changing the world.

LANG1021

Introduction to Language, Culture and Communication

This module will introduce you to the study of language, culture and communication, and the ways in which they are connected. Language is understood as a form of social action that allows us to carry out everyday activities through our communicative practices (construct images of ourselves, make friends, ask for information, convince others, etc.). Communicative practices shape our world, but at the same time are shaped by the different instances that form that world (cultural knowledge, institutions, society, social groups, norms, etc).

Introduction to Machine Learning

Machine Learning advances are revolutionising our world. At a fundamental level, Machine Learning deals with the extraction of useful information from large and complex datasets. There are now many applications, from the automatic understanding and processing of written text, the automatic detection of obstacles in stereo camera images in self driving cars or the recognition of human speech as in virtual digital assistants.

Machine learning is a broad discipline, requiring a basic understanding of many areas of science, from mathematical and statistical concepts to computational techniques. This module focusses on the fundamental concepts of modern Machine Learning for students studying engineering disciplines other than computer science and electronic engineering. The module will cover a range of fundamental principles, introduce state of the art techniques and will allow you to develop the practical skills to implement these techniques to analyses real world data to solve realistic engineering challenges.
