This Urban Design master's prepares you to contribute towards an improvement in the quality of the built environment.

We've structured the course around three main urban projects. Each explores key contemporary issues in urban design:

• Urban regeneration
• Housing
• Public space and engagement

Theoretical and practical lectures, seminars and workshops underpin these projects. The course is primarily studio based. There is an emphasis on independent learning. You're encouraged to cultivate a studio atmosphere within your year group. You'll learn from each other's diverse disciplinary backgrounds. 

This master's in Chemistry provides an overview of chemistry topics as practised in modern research. You'll receive speciality training in areas of organic, inorganic, physical and analytical chemistry.

Through this MSc Chemistry you'll achieve a high level of research competence. The research project and dissertation will provide you with training in tackling a significant research problem. You'll also develop skills to communicate the results of these research problems.

You'll get experience in relevant aspects of laboratory work. This includes COSHH and safety.

You'll gain specialist knowledge and understanding through lectures, seminars and workshops. You'll take part in taught laboratory classes. You'll perform carefully designed and tested experiments.

Immerse yourself in the study of the Greek and Roman world on this three-year Classical Studies BA Honours degree. You'll focus on developing your knowledge of how ancient societies thought about and presented their world through culture.

Exploring everything from literature, history and art, to science, architecture and religion, you'll learn about the impact Classical tradition has had on Western civilisation. You'll also learn about the range of approaches available to study it.

Alongside core modules in Greek and Roman literature, you'll explore a variety of topics, including Greek and Roman religion, slavery in Greco-Roman Antiquity, the life and afterlife of Alexander the Great, and the ‘reception’ of the Greek and Roman past in modern cinema.

The Cross-Cultural Communication and Applied Linguistics MA provides theoretical, research and practical training in areas of international and intercultural communication. It also provides training on the analysis of language in use, in a variety of settings and on the teaching and learning of English as a second language.

The Applied Linguistics pathway is a specialism on the Cross-Cultural Communication MA. It allows you to study applied linguistics and intercultural communication. It provides knowledge and expertise in the new approaches and techniques for teaching English as a second or foreign language.

Academic staff in applied linguistics and communication within the School of Education, Communication and Language Sciences deliver this specialist pathway. It offers a wide range of optional modules in the areas of applied linguistics and Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL).

The applied linguistics academic staff have teaching and research expertise in:

• Second language acquisition
• Discourse analysis
• Classroom interaction
• Multimodal interaction
• Teaching and learning English through media and technology
• Teacher development

If you're interested in a career in language teaching, but have little or no previous teaching experience, this pathway offers the option of introductory modules in TESOL. These provide a thorough grounding in the practical skills and knowledge for language teaching and learning.

This course meets the demand for increased knowledge in intercultural communication.

Changing social conditions and circumstances need:

• New ways of dealing with people
• Fresh ways of interacting and communicating with people of other cultures

Our cross-cultural communication master's covers how cultures and human behaviour reflexively interconnect.

We must improve our knowledge and understanding of the processes and issues involved in cross-cultural communication. We must discover how we can apply such knowledge in everyday experiences.

In practice, we need to develop our knowledge of why and how communication 'works' and how and why it sometimes does not 'work'.

The course answers questions including:

• How cultural background impacts upon successful communication
• How language, thought, and behaviour are interrelated
