The aim of this module is to enable students to:

• acquire an understanding of the hands-on fundamentals of GIS;
• apply GIS techniques to analyse environmental data, generate and present useful information and support decision making processes;
• appreciate and explain the key benefits and limitations associated with the use of GIS and its underpinning data.

The aim of this module is to develop knowledge, understanding and skills required to undertake hydrological and meteorological measurements, and to evaluate measurement and monitoring practices and policies for a changing climate.

The aim of this module is to develop an understanding of alternative climate pathways, to use data and tools to define probable climate futures (with a focus on the UK over the 21st century), and to rehearse strategies for communicating future change.

The aim of this research-led module is to understand how the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) relate to each other and to model their interactions, with a special focus on the quantitative analysis of Climate, Land, Energy, and Water systems (CLEWs). Students will work with the CLEWs modelling framework, developed as part of the Climate Compatible Growth programme within STEER – the Loughborough Centre for Sustainable Transitions: Energy, Environment and Resilience.
