Truth, Knowledge, and Objectivity
The central goals of enquiry are to discover what the world is like and how we ought to live. A simple and initially attractive picture is that there is a world independent of us that we can learn about via experience, and via reasoning. But both parts of this picture are subject to significant philosophical worries. Is the world truly independent of us, or do we somehow construct it – are truths about beauty and ethics, race and gender, dependent on our beliefs and relative to our perspectives? Does the existence of widespread disagreement in these areas show that there is no independent fact of the matter? Can we really know about a world independent of us given that we are subject to error and illusion, and that we can doubt all of our beliefs? Are there some truths that can’t be known or that can’t be known by certain groups of people? -

Truth, Opinion, And Ideology
It is commonplace to hear people say such things as, "You should believe that the climate is changing—that's what the evidence tells us", or "You ought not to believe that the earth is flat—that's just not true". These judgements concerning what people ought (not) to believe seem to assume that there are norms governing belief in something like the way that moral norms govern action. But what are these norms? Are they moral? If not, what kind of norms are they? The judgements about what people ought (not) to believe seem also to assume that people bear responsibility for their beliefs in something like the way that they bear moral responsibility for their actions. However, people cannot control what they believe in the way they can control what they do. Moreover, beliefs are influenced by a range of external factors ranging from upbringing to peer pressure to indoctrination. So, are people really responsible for their beliefs? And, if they are, how might such external influences make a difference to whether beliefs satisfy the norms governing them? These are among the issues this module will explore. -

Turbulence
This module will provide an introduction to the fundamentals of turbulent flow . The focus will be on understanding the equations of motion and the underlying physics they contain. The goal will be to provide you with the tools necessary to continue the study of turbulence. Topics covered include: what is turbulence; the Reynolds-averaged equations; the Reynolds stress equations; simple decaying turbulence; homogeneous shear flow turbulence; free turbulent shear flows; wall-bounded turbulent flows; turbulent mixing. -
