CENV3065 2029-30
Railway Engineering and Operations
This module provides comprehensive coverage of the main features of railway engineering and operations, including topics ranging from system planning through to the impacts of noise and vibration. During the module students will develop an appreciation of the distinctive features of engineering in the railway context, while also making links with more general engineering and transport planning practice. The module will combine theoretical analysis with practical applications to allow students to understand how railway engineering and operational principles are used in the real world. The module takes advantage of the University of Southampton’s substantial experience and expertise in railway research, and will make use of case studies based on recent and ongoing research projects. -

Rationality, Preference, Wellbeing, and Fairness: Concepts in the Philosophy of Politics and Economics
This module explores issues at the intersection of philosophy, politics, and economics, focusing on questions about the relevance of preference and wellbeing for government decision-making. What are preferences? How might they be relevant to good government decision-making? What is wellbeing? How might it be relevant to good government decision-making, and how might it connect with, or compete with, considerations to do with our preferences? What other considerations feed into government decision making that might compete with, or even undermine, these considerations? We will explore these questions both in the abstract, but also with concrete test cases - these will vary from year to year but might include topics such as overall tax rates, inheritance tax, public health interventions, and questions about healthcare spending priorities. -

Rationality, Responsibility, and Ethics
This module will explore some central issues about rationality, responsibility, and ethics. Questions we shall consider may include: What is it to act? Are all actions motivated by desire? Do we act only in pursuit of what we deem good? What is involved in acting rationally, or for a good reason? Do all, some, or none of our reasons depend on our desires? Do moral considerations necessarily provide reasons for action, or is there sometimes most reason to be immoral? What is it to act for the right reasons? What makes our actions worthy of praise or blame? When does ignorance excuse? -
