The aims of this module are for the student to become familiar with and comprehend the wide range of research methods and skills needed to investigate, understand, communicate and execute a research project.

The aim of this module is for the student to understand and explore the principles around use of low carbon materials in construction and civil engineering and how this knowledge can be applied to the design, construction and maintenance of buildings and infrastructure.

The aim of this module is to introduce students to the theory and practice behind various modelling techniques used to provide solutions for some common applications in subsurface fluid flow and geotechnical engineering. Students will also be made aware of the capabilities, limitations and potential problems of the various models. A secondary aim of this module will be to develop the students' ability to solve 'real' engineering problems by numerical methods, and to also understand the limitations of numerical techniques.

The aim of this module is to provide an understanding of statistical and numerical methods, typically applied in civil engineering disciplines. It is designed to provide a conceptual and practical understanding of the mathematics and statistics that students will encounter in subsequent modules related to modelling and data analytics, as well as in their future careers.

The aim of this module is to provide the student with experience of the process and methodology of research by defining and studying (on an individual basis) a complex problem in a specialised area relating to their programme of study.

The aims of the module are to:

• Introduce the theory and practice of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and Remote Sensing techniques.
• Equip students with the key concepts and skills required to perform GIS workflows from data collection, representation, manipulation, analysis and visualization.

The module is aimed at developing students' knowledge and understanding of vibrational problems in structural engineering, and to provide them with the basic analytical and numerical tools to assess the dynamic response of structures, with special emphasis on the vibration-based structural health monitoring (SHM) and seismic design to Eurocode 8 (EC8).

The aim of this module is to provide the student with experience of the process and methodology of research by defining and studying (on an individual basis) a complex problem in a specialised area relating to their programme of study.

The aims of this module are to:

• Introduce general built environment professionals to sustainable, culturally sensitive, and inclusive Disaster Risk Management (DRM) activities (structural and non-structural) worldwide.
• Explore the links between engineering, architecture, and planning interventions, their impact on the socio-cultural, natural, and physical environment, and subsequent increases or decreases in disaster risk (within the context of the challenges posed by climate change).

The aim of this module is to develop an advanced understanding of the drivers of flooding, what flood risk is and how it might change in the future, and the tools and strategies available to manage flood risk.

The aim of this module is to introduce the student to the fundamental concepts of strategic management and the tools for formulating and implementing strategies within the construction sector.

The aim of the module is to introduce students to the range of techniques and strategies for managing people and teams within the context of the construction sector, and to provide students with the opportunity to apply this knowledge within individual and team-based exercises as well as an outdoor management course.

The early part of the module is a unique combination of developing and deepening students understanding of their own management competencies, theoretical grasp of theory (leadership, teamwork, motivation, power) and communication) and a fantastic opportunity to engage in experiential learning over three very challenging, problem solving days within an outdoor environment. Developing and then combining knowledge of management competencies, theory and practice with the opportunity to experience and self-reflect upon their connections is unique within this module. The latter half of the module then deepened students grasp of organisation theory by exploring and critically analysing theories of culture, HRM and change.

The aim of this module is to provide the student with experience of the process and methodology of research by defining and studying (on an individual basis) a complex problem in a specialised area relating to their programme of study.
