This unit provides a more advanced course in oceanography, focused on biogeochemical and geological oceanography. It builds on the material presented in KSA205 Introduction to Oceanography. The biogeochemical oceanography part covers mechanisms involved in the carbon cycle and biological pump, distribution of chemical properties in the global ocean, thermodynamic principles, nutrient and carbon...

Advanced Technologies investigates the implications of emerging shifts within the Architecture Engineering and Construction (AEC) industry that foster the technological transformation of design workflows, computational processes, material engagement, environmental performance, fabrication tools, and construction methodologies. Through research, case studies, and hypothetical projects you will...

Biodiversity is a critical component of sustainable living and is central to several of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. At a local scale, biodiversity is important for healthy and sustainable living, and due to the complexity of biodiversity issues in urban areas, requires well informed and strategic management. Focusing on the biodiversity present in urban areas, especially...

This unit provides you with an introduction to behavioural economics. Behavioural economics is a discipline at the intersection of economics and psychology that draws on insights and methods from the social sciences to understand better how people actually make decisions. The aim of this unit is not to be mathematically or theoretically thorough. Rather, it focuses on developing a better...
