GGES3018 2029-30
Geographies of Social Justice, Welfare and Rights
The module will introduce students to critical geographical themes as they relate to welfare, rights and social justice, including the state and territorialisation, community, confinement, deinstitutionalisation, landscapes of care, fragmentation and localism etc. -
GGES2009 2027-28
Geographies of Wellbeing, Inequality and Place
In contemporary neoliberal societies individuals are increasingly positioned as responsible for their own wellbeing. In the first half of this module we look at how health and wellbeing are often reduced down to a lifestyle choice. But is health and wellbeing about personal choice, or does the state have a role to play in ensuring citizens can flourish? The second half of the module introduces some of the ways in which geographers have sought to analyse health inequalities. How does place matter for health and wellbeing? Why is health unequal across space, and how do we explain these inequalities? Working across different scales (from the local to the global), the module covers important contemporary case studies: such as humanitarianism and the refugee crisis, food poverty, environmental racism, and housing insecurity. -

MATH6138 2025-26
Geometric Group Theory
Students will be able to apply logic and reason to prove basic results in geometric group theory. They will be able to use the geometry of the hyperbolic plane and other related simple geometric artefacts to demonstrate many of the standard features of geometric group theory. Students will also be able to work with free groups and group presentations. While developing theoretical understanding, students will be able to use examples to illustrate different aspects of geometry and group theory. -
