This module provides a comprehensive overview of the main features of logistic system operations. During the module, students will develop an appreciation for the different ways in which goods and services are managed and handled across the different transport modes from consignor to consignee, and the range of different issues that have to be considered when planning such logistics operations. The module combines theoretical analysis with case study examination and practical field trips to ensure that students experience the logistics systems first-hand.

The module takes advantage of the University of Southampton, Transportation Research Group’s’s substantial experience and expertise in logistics research, and will makes use of case studies based on recent and ongoing research projects for local authorities, industry, the EU and EPSRC.

This module is designed to provide learners with the opportunity to explore contemporary issues related to assessment, diagnosis and management of Long-Term Conditions impacting the lower limb. Learners are likely to be from multi-professional backgrounds including Podiatrists, Nurses, Physiotherapists, Occupational Therapists, Prosthetists & Orthotists. Learners will explore topics ranging from condition diagnosis to organisation of healthcare delivery across a range of settings, such as UK NHS services, other health and care organisations within and outside of the UK, charity and sports settings, and the military.

This module sits within the MSc Professional Practice in Health programme and is closely linked to complementary modules ‘Clinical biomechanics’ (10ECTS), ‘Contemporary issues in Limb Loss’ (10ECTS) and ‘Amputation and rehabilitation and prosthetic use’ (20ECTS) but can be undertaken as a standalone module. Module content is closely aligned to the School of Health Sciences ‘Long Term Conditions’ and ‘Active Living’ research groups, drawing upon contemporary evidence generation and international field leaders to deliver cutting-edge education.

This module is likely to attract professionals who are working in the field of lower limb healthcare, Long-Term Conditions management, or those who would like to move into a career in this field. This module has a flexible study route for working professionals and is taught in a one-week block involving weekend work.

GGES2004 examines long-term environmental change through the period of the glacial-interglacial cycles. These dramatic shifts in Earth's systems are fascinating to study because they show us how the environment reacted to rapid climate change in the past - informing our understanding of what to expect from modern global warming and its knock-on consequences.

We will explore the environmental reactions to past rapid climate change, such as extreme sea level shifts, changed geography of landmasses, wildfire and biome migration. We will also examine the possible drivers of these environmental upheavals and consider the possible trajectory of relevant processes from today into the future (e.g. onset of large-scale icesheet collapse).

By gaining a long-term perspective on climate and wider environmental change we may contribute to addressing pressing modern issues in conservation - for example, how to maintain habitat quality/function and the conservation of biodiversity in the face of large-scale environmental change.

We will first focus on the patterns of climate and wider environment change and how to reconstruct them using core samples and a variety of analytical techniques in the laboratory practicals (these will be taught from basic principles, so no prior knowledge will be needed), before moving on to the implications for our modern world.

Two key themes run through the course: sources of information on the forms, rates and mechanisms of global environmental change and secondly the lessons that we can take from the past to inform modern conservation and environmental issues.

The aim of the module is to provide students with an introduction to the major themes of study and the principal issues of the period of the glaciations worldwide and the practical skills to undertake their own research into long-term environmental change. The emphasis is at the global scale for the main framework of themes, with much of the detailed focus on the British Isles - because we know more about Europe and the British Isles than any other area on the globe - and because it is where you are!

This module builds on the knowledge and skills from high-level programming. The goal is twofold - programming in both embedded systems and high-performance contexts. C and C++ are used as languages in this module. C is taught because it is a suitable statically-typed low-level comparator with Python (used in the High-Level Programming module), because many commercially-available embedded systems support a C API, and because the debugging process is (relatively) straightforward. C++ is taught to demonstrate further programming concepts that arise from the interaction between inheritance and type systems, and because C++ is a popular language for backend development in the ML space.
