Compulsory

Optional modules, choose 2 from the following 3:

Carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) and Negative Emission Technologies (NETs) – 20 credits
To have a chance of limiting global warming below 1.5°C, most recent scenarios from integrated assessment models (IAMs) require large-scale deployment of negative emissions technologies (NETs). These are technologies that result in the net removal of greenhouse gases from the atmosphere. This module will first provide an up-to-date status report of the global carbon budget and the role of NETs in meeting climate targets. This is followed by a technological overview of each of the various NETs. The module also explores how we quantify the potential global impacts of the different NETs on various factors to determine the biophysical limits to, and economic costs of, their widespread application.

Emerging Hazards – 20 credits
This module will assess the impact of what might be described as ‘emerging hazards’. Such hazards are those which appear to be becoming more common and/or widespread and which often fall into the categories of biological, geological and chemical (indeed, biogeochemical). Common features of such hazards include their wide spatial distributions and significant numbers of people affected. The causes of these emerging hazards will be examined, along with compounding factors that influence their impact and an overall investigation into the risk of their occurrence. A critical evaluation of the possible remedies to alleviate the scale, intensity and impact of such hazard events will then be explored, along with a consideration of the prospects for the future.

Pressures on our Planet – 20 credits
The aim of this module is to explore the role of earth science in its relationship with contemporary environmental change. Specifically, the module will lead you to better understand how environmental processes, products and hazards interact with the human environment to produce new and ever-evolving challenges for society. Our response to such challenges will be examined, as will the identification of opportunities to mitigate these impacts and adjustments to how we interact with the natural environment. Throughout the module, emphasis will be placed on how the learnings will inform meeting the United Nation's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) targets for 'Good Health and Wellbeing for all' (SDG 3), 'Sustainable Cities and Communities' (SDG 11) and 'Climate Action' (SDG 13).

Optional

Optional module, choose 1 from the following 2:

Renewable Transport – 20 credits
The transport sector (with the exception of freight and heavy-duty vehicles) is more amenable to decarbonisation than other sectors of the global economy. Transport therefore poses one of the most difficult and emotive challenges to energy system decarbonisation. Through studying this module, you will take a detailed look at the global transport sector by an examination of the various transport modes and their outlook, in light of the transition to a decarbonised world.

One of the key themes that you will explore, is how the transition to decarbonised transport within the wider energy sector will be increasingly influenced by electrification and the commercialisation of hydrogen as a transport fuel. You will use case studies and your own research on evolving fuel technology, to demonstrate your understanding of the progress towards sector-wide improvements in transport sustainability.

Armed with an understanding of transport principles, you will learn about the influence of electrification and hydrogen as fuel in the transport sector. Case studies, as well as evolving fuel and vehicle technologies within the transport sector, will be used to illustrate and evidence progress and policy recommendations for achieving sector-wide improvements, especially in freight and heavy-duty vehicles in this age of digital, physical distribution management.

This module will majorly link to the UN's SDG 11 'Sustainable Cities and Communities' because transport contributes significantly to global carbon emissions: it will contribute towards parts of SDG 9 'Industries, Innovation and Infrastructure' by developing more efficient uses of resources to reduce carbon emissions, as well as SDG 13 'Climate Action', by reducing transport demand and thus reducing carbon and greenhouse gas emissions.

Nature-based Solutions – 20 credits
This module will give you the opportunity to evaluate the approaches of conservation, restoration and improved management of ecosystems across a catchment scale that can alleviate the impact of contemporary challenges such as climate change, habitat loss, urbanisation and sustainable development. We evaluate a range of nature-based solutions, evaluating their benefits, costs, and mitigation potential. You will also be required to participate in a mandatory residential field trip² (at no extra cost to you) to explore nature-based solutions in action and also to design your own nature-based solution. Your learning will be informed by module staff’s research experience.

Optional
