Course Description
In this class you will have the opportunity to demonstrate independence and originality, to plan and organise a large project over a long period, and to put into practice the knowledge, skills and research methods that you have learnt throughout the course. Upon successful completion of this module, you will have demonstrated your ability to apply previously taught knowledge and skills to a substantial problem in Computing, as an individual. You will conduct an independent investigation and apply cutting-edge research, methods and thinking appropriate to the problem, presenting complex technical material orally to a mixed audience. You will exercise scientific writing skills by way of a substantial written report, summarising your findings There will be a small number of supporting lectures that will describe the structure of the project, including expectations, milestones and deliverables,give guidance on writing and presentation skills targeted specifically at individual projects and explain the assessment procedures. Please note this is a graduate level course The rest of the project involves an independent investigation under the supervision of an academic advisor.

Course Description
The class will explore a range of topics in the philosophy of mind, such as the nature of consciousness and thought, the nature of human action and the problem of determinism, the relation between mind (or mental phenomena) and body (or physical phenomena), and the possibility of artificial intelligence. Students will gain a deeper understanding of the interplay between philosophical research in these areas and research across a broad range of scientific disciplines, such as neuroscience, life sciences, medicine and computing. By comparing the work of thinkers as diverse as Dennett, Davidson, Putnam, the Churchlands, Fodor, Ryle, Wittgenstein and Heidegger, students will encounter and critically evaluate the cutting edge of modern thinking about the mind, and to the issues that must be resolved before embarking on any scientific exploration of the mind.

Course Description
This course enables students to master essential topics in vibrations and dynamics and contributes to the development of their analytical, design, and communication skills. Upon completion of the course, students are able to discuss the dynamical behavior of one-degree-of-freedom dynamical systems in general terms using the concepts of natural frequency, damping, free response, forced response, transmissibility, isolation, phasor diagrams, and Bode plots; discuss the dynamical behavior of multi-degree-of-freedom systems in terms of natural frequencies and associated mode shapes; use the concept of modal summation; discuss the concepts of energy-work done; and understand linear momentum, linear impulse, angular momentum, angular impulse, and simple gyroscopic motion.
