The module provides students with an awareness of the sustainability of energy generation and chemical processes. It will consider aspects of the availability and efficient use of chemical resources, and the use of new environmentally benign methods and processes to provide sustainable scientific innovation in our daily lives. More specifically, it will provide an overview of the fundamental principles of Green Chemistry and its applicability in Sustainable Chemical Processes

Providing secure, affordable and sustainable energy is one of the defining challenges facing engineers today. This module develops a broad understanding of how energy is generated, distributed and consumed while exploring the environmental and societal issues that shape future energy systems.

You will examine global energy flows, the use of conventional and renewable energy resources, and the engineering principles that underpin modern energy technologies. Through the evaluation of topics such as fossil fuel depletion, hydrogen technologies, climate change and the greenhouse effect, you will develop the ability to assess the opportunities and limitations of different energy solutions. Throughout the module, emphasis is placed on applying engineering knowledge to real-world energy challenges and evaluating how different technologies can contribute to a sustainable energy future.

By the end of the module, you will be able to assess energy systems from technical, environmental and societal perspectives, developing the knowledge and critical thinking skills needed to contribute to the transition towards more sustainable and resilient energy infrastructures.

The module provides an understanding of general energy concepts and how to apply energy related techniques gained through specialist courses to every-day situations. We will also take a look at the energy flows around our planet and consider issues such as the greenhouse effect. Questions that will be discussed in this course include:
- How do we use energy?
- How long will fossil fuels last?
- What are the principal barriers to hydrogen economy?
- How do we select the optimum energy mix?

Sustainable entrepreneurship is a rapidly growing movement and it has attracted an increasing attention locally, nationally and globally in recent years. Numerous international institutions such as international organisations (e.g. United Nations, World Bank), world-class universities, governments, public agencies, private corporations and entrepreneurial firms are paying attention to the phenomenon of sustainability and any entrepreneurial and leadership processes that underpin bringing sustainable business solutions to small or large-scale societal and/or environmental solutions. The central driver for sustainable entrepreneurship is the environmental/social problem being addressed in an innovative and sustainable way, with an objective to embed all pillars of sustainability (i.e. economic, social and environmental) in building and leading the business. Such sustainability focus and impact creating activity can occur within or across the organisations and sectors. A wide range of employers are increasingly seeking individuals that can apply entrepreneurial and leadership solutions to sustainability matters.

There is an urgent need for competent individuals who can design novel solutions to most profound societal, environmental and business challenges. This module is designed to equip you with such skills and develop competencies in order to generate alternative economic and social practices and frameworks to address such sustainability challenges. These might include social enterprises, collaborative innovation networks, hubs, digital platforms and support intermediaries. The emphasis is on developing entrepreneurial skills and leadership frameworks underpinned required to create and lead a scalable sustainable business, collaborative network for sustainability purposes as well as transforming global organisations from a sustainable entrepreneurship and leadership angle. You will be motivated to develop yourself as sustainability-driven laeders/entrepreneurs and change agents, if that’s your chosen path.

You will learn the role that sustainable entrepreneurship play in society as change agents and the key challenges that they face in their work; and examine leadership, organisational and structural aspects of sustainable entrepreneurship. The module will enable you to have a deeper examination of the theoretical and practical foundations of sustainable entrepreneurship and leadership. At the same time, it provides unique access to an expanding learning community (guest speakers, practising sustainable entrepreneurs, researchers in the field) to engage and collaborate with.
