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 aims of this module are to:

• provide a critical understanding of, and skills relating to, aquatic environments, examining quantities, qualities and ecologies of natural water resources and how these relate to society's needs
• demonstrate need for and processes of environmental assessments in low- and middle-income countries

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 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 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.
