AUDI1013 2025-26
Introduction to Hearing Science and Technology
This module provides you with a deep understanding of the fundamental science and technology underlying clinical hearing assessment and rehabilitation. It will include a foundation in the epidemiology of hearing loss, the biology of the hearing system, the psychology of sound perception, the physics of sound, the principles of hearing technology and how those areas inter-relate. These subjects will be taught with a strong emphasis on their relevance to audiological assessment and rehabilitation. No assumptions are made about your background in these except that you completed maths and science at GCSE level or equivalent. This module works closely with Biopsychosocial Basis of Audiology, which provides you with a more general introduction to neurobiology, psychology and other relevant themes. This module also works with Biopsychosocial Basis of Audiology to provide you with a series of sessions on academic skills across the year in order to support you make the transition to undergraduate study in a scientific discipline. -

ARCH1077 2025-26
Introduction to Historical Archaeology
In a common analogy where the c.4.5 billion years of Earth's geological history are equated to a 24-hour day - modern humans appearing only within the last 4 seconds - written human history begins only in the last 100 milliseconds. That time, though, saw major shifts in human behaviours. Archaeological investigation of societies that habitually read and write has its own characteristics and challenges: the presence of written records changes how scholars have engaged with the past, providing hugely detailed information across diverse spheres of activity, but also tending to devalue and undermine the autonomy of the material record. This module will introduce you to the archaeology of historical periods, and the range of human societies, with and without writing, that existed from the advent of text at the end of the 4th millenium BCE. We will critique the historical tendency to privilege written sources over material ones, and demonstrate the range and diversity of archaeology's contributions to our understanding of societies from the ancient world to the present day. -
