This micro-credential is for professionals who work with &nbsp;spatial data and/or maps and would like to have the ability to analyse this data and create new maps and spatial information.
The production of good informative maps and the analysis of &nbsp;spatial data are valuable but scarce skill sets. With developments in GPS, mobile devices, and software, organisations are now collecting more and more spatial data and need spatial specialists to manage, analyse and report this data. 
Local authorities, civil engineering consultancies, environmental agencies, utility companies, among others, are increasing their use of GIS to manage their valuable spatial data.
This micro-credential will enable learners to get a practical introduction to the QGIS open-source software and will use the software to address an issue in their field. 
Examples of projects completed by students recently include the identification of the best location for a new waste-to-energy plant, a study of the relationship between tree cover and household income, the siting of a new mass-vaccination centre, a study of the effect of green-ways on the local population. In each of these, publicly available spatial data was used to investigate a topical issue.
How will this Micro-credential be delivered?
This micro-credential required in-person attendance once a week - Wednesdays 9:00 am - 12:00 noon.

Air pollution represents a global health challenge and is directly contributing to climate change. It is present in both outdoor and indoor environments. To address air pollution effectively, we need to fully understand the complex mix of pollutants.
This micro-credential provides valuable insight into air pollutants, focusing on how we measure and assess the challenge at individual, local, national, and global levels. The course provides learners with the skills to effectively monitor campaigns, perform informed assessment studies, and design or select appropriate control technologies and strategies to improve air quality.
This micro-credential will appeal to working professionals in the public or private sector responsible for air quality monitoring and assessment, with responsibilities in air quality reporting, or who have a role in air pollution mitigation and adaptation in either the indoor or outdoor environment. 
 Interested learners will be introduced to the field of air pollution science, identifying the current challenges and key background knowledge in the provision of clean air for society and the environment.
How will this Micro-credential be delivered?
This micro-credential is available as hybrid learning with:
<ul>
 <li>Lectures delivered live from a lecture theatre (face-to-face format)</li>
 <li>Remote access to all sessions recordings</li>
</ul>

Being Quantum Ready - PHY1096

Bioelectronics uses electronics and computer systems in biology and medicine, and explores how biological materials can help solve information-processing challenges. While its main influence is evident in biomedical sensing and equipment, this field extends to various existing and potential applications of electronics in biology. Additionally, it explores the use of organic materials to tackle information-processing hurdles. It is a relatively new frontier for the attention of electronic and computer engineers, but its importance can only increase with the passage of time.
