Liveable Cities
Cities are continually evolving in response to economic, social and environmental drivers. Globalisation is accelerating this process and cities which are unable to respond may quickly lose their purpose and vitality. In a UK context, many cities have areas that developed during the Industrial Revolution or post World War II to deliver activities that are no longer relevant at such a physical scale. These areas are now opportunities for regeneration or change of use, in essence ‘rezoning’. Whilst globalisation can be considered as the major disruptor to the vitality of a city it is by no means an isolated event. There are an ever increasing number of smaller, often technology-led disruptors that have emerged following the expansion of the Internet such as UBER, Airbnb, Deliveroo, Amazon and Netflix. In parallel, cities need to accommodate an ageing population and address the predicted climate change led challenges such as greater intensity and frequency of flooding and heatwaves.
Civil engineering delivers the hard infrastructure such as transport which may lock a city into a defined path for decades. An important skill therefore for the modern civil engineer is the ability to understand the challenges and opportunities that exist at the city scale and use this understanding to develop contextual solutions (systems design). This sits at the core of Liveable Cities, how do we shape cities to create the places people want to live, work and play in?
How do we ensure cities are inclusive for all, meeting various needs and circumstances? -

Living with the Romans: Urbanism in the Roman Empire
The towns in which the Romans lived are some of the most familiar features of the Roman world. Although they seem to look and feel like modern towns, they actually worked in quite different ways, a reflection of the fact that ancient Roman society was distinct to our own.
This module introduces you to archaeology of towns from across the Roman world between the 3rd century BC and the 6th century AD.
You will learn of the very different ways in which the Romans thought about towns and how they were organized. In particular, you will be introduced to the vibrant political and commercial life of towns in the Roman towns and provinces, and their links with Rome itself. You will also gain an appreciation of how Roman towns actually worked from day to day and their roles within the broader empire, and will also discover why there were very marked differences between towns in different parts of the Mediterranean, northern Europe and north Africa and the Middle East. You will also venture out into the countryside surrounding the towns, and learn something of their links to villages, farms and villas. Following this module, in short, will introduce you to some breath-taking archaeological sites and provide you with a fascinating glimpse into a key part of our European cultural heritage. -
