The aim of this module is to provide students with a critical theoretical understanding of the principles which underpin nature-based solutions and to equip students to design and perform whole-system assessment of nature-based solutions for climate change resilience.

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 visualisation.

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.
