Musculoskeletal Biomechanics and Biomaterials (Part I) (SURG0056)

The Musculoskeletal Biomechanics and Biomaterials module is divided into two components: Biomechanics and Biomaterials.  Biomechanics studies the structure and function of the human musculoskeletal system, by applying principles of mechanics.  It introduces students to concepts of biomechanics and applies these concepts to human body movement, particularly those pertaining to gait, physical activity and loading to the joints. The biomaterials aspect of the module will introduce students to a spectrum of biomaterials used as medical devices in orthopaedic disorder treatment, biological-biomaterials interactions, host responses, and biomaterials evaluations.

Transformation Trends and Emerging Technology Review (SPCE0046)

The Transformation Trends and Emerging Technology Review module requires students to critically assess how technology is changing and impacting business transformation. They will:

Select an emerging technology for the group to analyse
 Describe the heritage and maturity of the emerging technology, including any key components or subsystems
 Evaluate the potential for the technology to influence transformation approaches including the ultimate sources of value
 Identify barriers and risks to the successful growth of the new transformation approaches using this technology
 Reflect on the role of leadership in underpinning the transformation approaches, including leading and developing people (internally) and developing collaborative relationships
 Use a suitable template to summarise the outlook for the transformation approaches
