Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) is a process required in many countries to predict the consequences of proposed projects (e.g. construction) or policies (e.g. ground water management). This includes assessing the impact on cultural heritage assets. Within this module you will learn the methods used to evaluate heritage sites and landscapes using desk based approaches, including Geographical information Systems, Computer Aided Design, historical maps, national archives and remote sensing. The module will include detailed discussion of the requirements of the EIA process, standards adhered to and the roles of consultants, regulators and contractors within this process.

This is one of the compulsory modules that provides an opportunity to develop knowledge and understanding of fashion in both contemporary and historical contexts.

It considers how as an ever-evolving global phenomenon fashion can be understood through socio-cultural, economic and environmental perspectives. The fashion industry is increasingly interested in how issues of equality, diversity and inclusion manifest and this module will address these concerns.

Consumers are key players within the field of fashion and cycles of fashion and this module will introduce theories and models of consumer behaviour to understand why consumers make decisions in buying fashion products and services. To understand consumers, it is important to have a clear insight into the multiple elements of personal identity intersect within individuals and impact on relationships between individuals and communities, as well as how these can influence consumer behaviour and decisions.

Ancient History goes beyond Greece and Rome. The ancient world was incredibly diverse, inhabited by different cultures, religions, and societies which were closely connected and left their mark on each other, through interaction, conflict, and exchange. It was precisely such contacts which shaped the history and make-up of ancient societies, which in turn have had a lasting impact on our modern world. This module explores the ways in which ancient societies were connected and in interaction with each other, through politics, diplomacy, and warfare; trade, travel, and migration; languages, literature, and story-telling; and/or cultural and religious ideas, practices and exchange.
The contents of the module will vary from year to year. Some of the key themes that may be explored include: the notion of the ‘other’ in ancient societies; concepts of cultural impact such as Hellenization, Romanization, Christianization, Arabization, Islamization; approaches to cultural interaction, which may include acculturation and assimilation, cultural hybridity, the ‘middle ground’, networks and connectivity, as well as themes of continuity and change, inclusion and exclusion, and/or warfare and conflict. There will be opportunities to explore cultural encounters on the wider political stage (between different societies) as well as thinking about cultural encounters between individuals and communities within ancient societies.

This module explores the Roman Empire, but from the perspective of those who resisted it, fought it, and rebelled against it. The study of the ancient world, throughout its different periods, is greatly influenced by Rome. Starting from its expansion during the Republican period, through the height of Empire in the first and second centuries CE, and into late antiquity - when the western Roman Empire and the Byzantine Empire parted ways - Rome had an undeniable and indelible impact on the ancient world, which in turn made a lasting imprint on modern society. In this module, you get the opportunity to explore how Rome’s expansion and influence was viewed and resisted by other ancient societies or groups within the Empire who questioned Rome’s authority.
The contents of the module will vary from year to year. Some of the key themes that may be explored include: comparisons between Rome and other ancient societies; questions around the authority and legitimacy of Roman rule; the notion of Roman citizenship and cultural identity, and affiliated advantages; shared or different cultural, religious, and social habits between Romans and others in the ancient world; causes and motivations for conflict with Rome, whether in the Republican period, during the height of the Roman empire, or in late antiquity; and the history and outcome of conflicts with Rome, whether large-scale wars or internal rebellions or revolts.
