PHYS2011 2028-29
Design and Observation in Astronomy
The course takes place during the Easter vacation at La Laguna University, Tenerife, Spain.
The course consists of two separately assessed modules.
Module 1 is a one week design study of an astronomical spacecraft.
Module 2 is a week of practical observations at the Teide Observatory using optical and infra-red telescopes involving both solar and night-time observations.
Due to space limitations at the observatory, only 12 students can take part in this module. Offers to participate are made only to the 12 academically strongest students registered on the MPhys with Astronomy Programme, based on performance in Year 1. Academic performance will be judged by the credit-weighted Year 1 average, using only marks obtained at the first attempt (i.e. no referral marks).
Only students registered on the MPhys with Astronomy programme by the end of the summer term of their first year will be considered for invitation onto this module. -

Design and Production of Online Learning
The third module is focused on the design and production of online learning across a series of lessons or learning sessions such as a module or curriculum. You will be given an opportunity to consider the issues around sequencing of learning, formative, and summative assessment, how to provide experiential online learning and how to produce online learning material including responsible use of AI to support the design and production of courses. The module will consider ways in which you can apply learning theory and pedagogy to your learning design and practice. You will learn how to support students as a tutor, how to reinforce learning, and provide for differentiation and progression across a series of lessons. Themes in the previous module will be developed further as we consider wider issues of learning design and creating a climate conducive to learning. -

Design Explorations
This practice-based module invites you to tackle complex and "wicked" global challenges using advanced design thinking, systems approaches, and iterative design methods. You will be encouraged to identify situations where the complexity of contemporary life overwhelms existing systems, services, or design responses - and to develop innovative, collaborative solutions that prioritise both people and the planet.
Engaging across artefacts, services, strategies, and experiences, you will investigate the values, goals, and needs of diverse stakeholders. You'll develop the ability to frame and communicate complex issues, recognising the social, environmental, and technological dimensions of design. Through iterative cycles of ideation, prototyping, testing, and refinement, you will produce ethically informed, professionally executed design outcomes.
Design Explorations promotes transdisciplinary collaboration and encourages co-creation with academic, civic, and industry partners. These partnerships will enrich your portfolio and equip you with the skills and experience needed for future professional pathways. -

Design for All: External Projects
This module enables students to apply ethical, inclusive design principles through externally set projects with industry partners. Students will consider multiple stakeholders throughout the design process, testing concepts and strategies to deliver responsive, accessible, and sustainable solutions. Students develop designs that address diverse needs, taking into account factors such as age, ability, and cultural context.
Emphasising real-world collaboration, the module builds skills in research, communication, and professional practice while encouraging reflective design approaches. Technical workshops are provided to support students. -
ARTD2184 2028-29
Design for Communities
This module explores social sustainability, responsive design approaches, and meaningful engagement with society.
Students work on projects that address identified community needs, responding to feedback and change while developing sustainable, ethical, and socially responsible design solutions. Co-design approaches and design ethnography are introduced as key methods for understanding users and contexts.
Teaching methods include studio-based sessions and technical workshops and working ‘live’ on real-time issues. The module may include guest lecturers and study trips that provide immersive examples of co-design.
