The module will provide:
- An introduction to the theoretical framework of climate variability
- Fundamentals of reconstructing past environments
- Fundamentals of dating techniques and developing chronological frameworks
- An overview of climatic evolution through geological time
- An assessment of mechanisms of orbital- and millennial-scale climate variability

The module aims:

- to provide an introduction to Past Climate Change
- to provide an understanding of the causes and mechanisms of natural climate variability as a basis for assessing future climate changes

This course focuses on ethical and philosophical approaches to democracy. It will introduce students to major theories of democracy, as well as major critiques of democracy. There will be five units: Definition – What is democracy, the history of the idea Democracy and Voting Democracy and Public Deliberative Culture Democracy and Community (Multiculturalism, Persistent Minorities) Problems of Democracy (Inequality, Individual Rights)

This module is aimed at graduate-level engineers with a background in electronic engineering or physics. The emphasis is on physical principles, and on modern radar systems and signal processing techniques, for both civilian and defence applications.

It considers a wide range of techniques used in radar systems including, the radar equation, noise, clutter and detection, displays, pulse doppler processing and STAP, pulse compression and waveform design. The module also looks in detail at many real radar systems including synthetic aperture radar, tracking radar, avionics and radionavigation, phased array radar, electronic warfare, stealth and counter-stealth, bistatic radar and sonar. It concludes with system design examples.
