This module conveys the concept of neuroscience as an integrative discipline by providing a description of mammalian nervous system function from molecular aspects of synaptic signalling to information integration and system level processing.

Lectures will be accompanied by practicals, some of which involve the use of animal tissue, with alternatives in place if required to meet minimum learning outcomes.

As the world transitions towards low-carbon energy, engineers are developing technologies that can generate clean electricity more efficiently and sustainably. Fuel cells and photovoltaic systems are at the forefront of this transition, powering applications ranging from electric vehicles and portable electronics to renewable energy generation and future hydrogen economies. This module explores the engineering principles behind these technologies and their role in achieving a more sustainable future.

You will examine the structure, materials, operating principles and performance of modern fuel cells and photovoltaic systems, developing an understanding of how engineers design, analyse and optimise these devices for real-world applications. Building on your knowledge of thermodynamics, materials and systems engineering, you will explore the factors that influence efficiency, durability and system integration while considering the engineering challenges associated with renewable energy technologies.

By the end of the module, you will be able to evaluate the design and operation of fuel cell and photovoltaic systems and appreciate their potential within future energy systems. The knowledge developed will prepare you for careers in renewable energy, sustainable engineering, energy storage and advanced power technologies.
