The module introduces students to the fundamental concepts relating to the sports sociology and psychology. Students will explore the social theories of sport, the relationship between sport and social institutions and the role of sport in society.Students will be introduced to the importance of sport psychology, psychological factors and sports psychological techniques that can be used to improve performance in sports competition.
Advanced skills in athletics is designed for year three students in physical education and sports unit to build on students' skills and understanding on athletics which is a prerequisite module for their graduation as PES graduates.
It touches on both track and field athletics especially at advanced levels such as officiating, coaching hints and administrative skills of athletics.
Welcome to this Course MAT3244: Introduction to classical Differential Geometry.This course employs the principles of multivariable Calculus , both differential and integral as well as Multilinear algebra, Analytic geometry and Differential equations to solve geometry problems related to curves and surfaces in Affine Euclidean spaces.This course is divided into two main parts. The first part deals with the differential geometry of smooth curves in 2D and 3D Affine Euclidean space and the second part is focused on the differential geometry of regular surfaces in 3D Affine Euclidean space.
Aims of the module:
- Define and Present a regular curve in 2D and 3D space
- Find the length, curvature and torsion of a curve
- Establish Frenet-Serret equations for a curve
- Give the geometric interpretation of curvature and torsion
- Define and give examples of regular surfaces
- Determine the first and Second fundamental forms of a surface
- Explain the intrinsic geometry of a surface using first quadratic form
- Explain the extrinsic geometry of a surface using second quadratic form
- Calculate and give geometric interpretations of various curvatures on a surface
- Determine some class es of lines on surface

The module aims to equip students with the knowledge and confidence to help them to develop skills, attitudes and values to successfully implement the mathematics CBC at secondary schools. It equips students with different methods of data analysis, basic concepts of sampling distribution, notion of parameters estimate, confidence intervals and statistical hypothesis tests. It allows to make analysis and predictions (“inferences”) from data.
The module investigates the following concepts of :Recall about Fourier series ,Special improper integrals, special Ordinary differential equations and their different applications in the fields of mathematics and physics, concepts of Orthogonal polynomials : Classification of Equations of Mathematical Physics and their applications, related boundary values problems (IVP and BVP) in n-2D.
This module will enable students understand the fundamental ideas of group representation theory and apply them in solving physical problems. The module consists of Algebraic structure, Groups and their representations, and finally finite groups.

This module introduces what Geographic Information System (GIS) is, and provides knowledge, skills and values of using a GIS application to capture, store, query, Analyse, display and output geographic information. The module also introduces the development of Android applications for Android devices. The module is divided into two main unit further into topics that will provided to you on weekly basis.
This module introduces theory of computation: formal languages and models of computations. The module introduces what the Artificial Intelligence is and Intelligent Agents. It also explores applications of Natural language, Vision, Robotics, Machine learning and the characteristics, techniques of expert & decision support systems.
The module is intended to familiarize you with the life cycles of parasites of major importance in Africa and to explain how the animal/human immune system mounts a defense against them. Content includes life cycles of protozoan and helminth parasites, account of the specific and non-specific immune systems, immunotherapy and immunization, and strategies of teaching and learning Parasitology and Immunology
This module is intended to give a broad overview of human biology with more emphasis on human evolution, social hazards, and reproduction. Contents include origin & ancestry of man, social habits and grouping, social hazards, STDs, diets and nutrition, sexual behaviour and reproduction, fertility, in vitro fertilisation, birth control and strategies for teaching and learning Human Biology and Nutrition.
This course introduce students to the basic concepts of environmental and space physics. It is divided into tow parts. Part one provoide students with fundamentals of environmental physics with particular focus on current issues such as climate change and environmental pollution. Part one also describe fundamentals of Sun-Earth interaction (Space weather) and effect on human technology. Part two of the course is an introduction to Astrophysics. Students are provided with basic knowledge of the structure, formation and evolution of stars in galaxies. A basic understanding of the solar system and the universe.
