The coastal zone supports the livelihood and well-being of hundreds of millions of people, valuable ecosystems and vital industry, trade links and energy networks. The movement of coastal sediments by natural processes and human interventions continually reshapes our coastal and marine environments, impacting on natural ecosystems, resources, and built assets, and our exposure to coastal hazards such as erosion and flooding. The movement of coastal sediments by tides, waves, currents [and wind and gravity] is complex and presents a formidable challenge that we must address to implement sustainable, adaptive and resilient solutions to coastal change and risk management, infrastructure development, habitat conservation, and sustainable provision of renewable energy and marine resources.

This module considers the fundamental principles underpinning coastal sediment dynamics and their practical applications in a quantitative manner. Flow properties, the benthic boundary layer, and resulting sediment/seabed responses under waves and steady currents are summarised. Modes of transport and resulting bed evolution are described and algorithms for predicting sediment transport are defined. The dynamics of cohesive and non-cohesive sediment transport are considered, and the implications of biology and engineering interventions are addressed. These concepts are described in a fieldtrip to Poole and Christchurch Bays and implications to coastal /ocean engineering and management are discussed with guest lecturers from industry and local government agencies.

The aim of this module is to expose students to ways of representing an transforming programs and other languages. This include the definition of languages through grammars and the parsing languages into data-structures. The module then explores the ideas of translating between languages, and mapping domain-specific languages to different backends (as seen in many AI tool-chains). The course also covers the step of compiling down from high-level representations to instructions, ensuring students understanding the complete lowering process.

The NICE guidelines recommend cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) as the best evidenced and most cost-effective treatment for a range of disorders including anxiety and depression. In order to be effectively delivered Clinical Psychologists, should be both knowledgeable and skilled in delivering evidence-based interventions to people with a variety of psychological disorders.

This CBT module will provide you with knowledge about CBT theory and application, and will develop your CBT skills in assessment, formulation and treatment. You will also be introduced to third wave CBT approaches for common psychological presentations encountered by clinical psychologists across a range of mental and physical health settings.
