Homotopy and Homology
Homotopy theory is the study of continuous deformations. A geometric object may be continuously deformed by pulling, stretching, pressing or compressing, but not by tearing or puncturing (which are discontinuous). Two objects can then be regarded as equivalent if one can be continuously deformed into the other and vice-versa. The goal of homotopy theory is to determine which geometric objects are equivalent in this sense, or not. To do this, methods are needed which assign algebraic information to these geometric objects which are invariant (stay the same) under continuous deformations. Examples consider in the module are homotopy groups and homology groups. -

FILM3024 2027-28
Horror on Film
Horror films have been one of the most consistent areas of cinema throughout its history. Despite horror quickly establishing itself in films, it was not until the 1930s and Hollywood's studio system that it became standardized as a genre with a repertoire of icons, themes and production techniques. There has been a constant drive for renewal and reinvention of the horror film in the face of perennial audience popularity. This module will deal with the breadth of the horror genre, looking at subgenres and historical developments as well as dealing with distinctive approaches to the horror film across the world. Topics will include German Expressionist films and the Gothic output of Hammer studios, while issues will include gender and the 'Final Girl' so common in slasher films, as well as representing 'the monstrous'. The variations of issue and film addressed by this module will enable you to gain a deeper understanding of the horror film as a complex of varied discourses and artistic currents rather than simply seeing the film as a moment of horrifying affect. -

Household Finance
This module familiarises students with theories and evidence of consumer/household financial decision making. The module examines optimal and actual financial decisions by households, e.g. on borrowing and saving, and the role of financial service provision by firms and the government. The module also considers normative aspects, such as financial regulation.
Students are strongly advised to have background knowledge of Finance/Financial Economics. -
