Course Description
The course provides students with an opportunity to undertake a directed independent study project. Students are expected to agree to a topic in consultation with the affiliate tutor and a project supervisor. Students should think about a topic in advance, and come to the first meeting with the supervisor with questions about how to address their topic. The purpose of discussion with the supervisor is to define the scope of the project so that it can be done in one or two terms. This course allows students to demonstrate knowledge and understanding of an area of politics/political science, having undertaken a piece of directed research on a subject of their choice. This is the semester only version of the year-long course.

Course Description

This course looks at the interaction of social change and politics in postwar Britain, integrating social and cultural history with political history. It introduces students to change thinking about class, race, and gender among political parties in Britain, looking at political thought, political ideologies, and political propaganda. Students examine the changing social and cultural bases of politics, and why “new social movements” like the Women’s Liberation Movement and Gay Liberation exploded onto the scene from the late 1960s onwards.

Course Description

This course is in the interdisciplinary field of icing in relation to aircraft. Ultimately, this course will draw from mathematics, physics, chemistry and engineering to provide attendees with a broad overview of the field of aircraft icing, and how the problem may be approached mathematically. This  involves understanding the problem, discussing the current state of engineering solutions, and study of how mathematics can help to improve, enhance and further this field. Modelling of this phenomena is a threefold approach. Firstly, the trajectory of particles within the fluid flow concerning an oncoming aircraft is calculated. Secondly, the behavior and mechanics of impinging particles (particles that make contact with the aircraft) needs to be understood. Thirdly, how ice builds up on a surface alongside the possibility of it shedding are important.
This course serves as an introduction to understanding this field and the analytical modelling of this problem.

Course Description

This course looks at what we know about healthy brains - how the brain is structured, the different types of brain cells, localization of function and neurochemistry of different brain areas, communication within the brain, and how we investigate it. It also looks at dysfunction in relation to vision, hearing, movement, memory, thinking, emotion, and behavior. Students learn about the world class research that takes place within the UCL Faculty of Brain Sciences and its constituent parts: the Division of Psychology and Language Sciences, the Division of Psychiatry, the Institutes of Ophthalmology and Neurology and the Ear Institute.
