This module provides an understanding of human responses to sound and vibration in the environment, and how such environmental stimuli are measured and assessed. People judge the success or failure of any efforts in noise and vibration control, so their responses should be understood and anticipated.

The module also shows:
- The main effects of noise and vibration on people.
- How to identify relevant variables and how they can be combined to make quantitative predictions of human responses to noise and vibrations.
- How to use standards and regulations that have been developed to provide a framework for the objective evaluation of noise and vibration.
- How to provide a basic understanding of alternative approaches to assessment that might be adopted in particular case.

Contemporary theories of global justice and international human rights law proceed from an essential common basis, i.e., placing persons in the centre of their focus and regarding them as ultimate units of moral and legal concern.

Does this mean that human rights are the best tool for expressing and realizing the demands of global justice and the latter could be adequately translated into the language of human rights?

The module addresses issues surrounding a complex relationship between human rights and global justice from two perspectives: first, it analyses the role of human rights in embodying and promoting principles of global justice; and second, it explores how contemporary theories and discourses of global justice can contribute to justifying, conceptualizing, and implementing human rights.

The module begins with an advanced introduction into some fundamental aspects concerning global justice and human rights and their interrelation, including normative foundations, principles, major actors, institutional framework, as well as strategies, mechanisms, and practices of realisation.

Following that, the module critically assesses the potential and limitations of human rights in dealing with the most pressing problems of global justice, such as colonialism and unfair domination, racism, gender discrimination, poverty and extreme inequality, unjust wars, climate change, digital divide, etc.

The participants of the module will try to find out whether a (radical) reconstruction of international human rights law is necessary to appropriately respond to the global challenges and meet the needs and expectations of the current and future generations.

This hands-on specialist module provides an in-depth understanding of Human Robot Interaction (HRI), focusing on the key modalities through which humans and robots interact, including verbal, non-verbal (such as pose and affect), spatial, and tactile interactions. Students will explore the sensors and actuators enabling these modalities and examine the underlying technologies, such as automatic speech recognition, human pose estimation, emotion recognition, and multimodal algorithms. The module emphasizes critical human factors in HRI, including safety, explainability, trust, shared autonomy and decision-making, and workload management. It introduces design methodologies to create HRI studies using simulations, wizard-of-Oz style tasks and real-world experiments and participatory approaches to create interactive robotics systems widely accepted by users. The module also covers evaluation techniques using both qualitative and quantitative methods. Finally, learners will investigate real-world HRI applications and use cases, including collaborative robots (cobots), social robots, and robots for wellbeing and education, equipping them with practical skills and theoretical knowledge to design and assess advanced HRI systems.
