This module aims at enabling students to get knowledge and understanding of the medieval and modern times’ societies. It deals with the main events and changes of the middle ages (early, high and late Middle Ages) and modern times societies including the developments in Europe as well as its contacts to the rest of the world. 

It is subdivided into two major units. Unit 1 is about the Medieval times while Unit 2 is about Modern Times. For more details, refer to the module description.

Dear Students, welcome to Igneous and Metamorphic Petrology module. It is only designed for students enrolled in Geology year 3. 

Brief description of aims and content

The module aims to introduce students to the fundamentals of igneous and metamorphic petrology. It provides understanding on the importance of mineralogy and rock texture to the interpretation of igneous and metamorphic rocks and an appreciation of the links between petrology, geochemistry, time scale and geodynamics (plate tectonics).

Learning Outcomes

A.     Knowledge and Understanding

On completion of this module, students should be able to:

A.1. Understand the role of magmatism in global evolution throughout earth history. 

A.2. Characterize the variety of igneous rocks exposed at the earth’s surface and establish relationships among them.

A.3. Interpret and analyze phase diagrams to understand igneous and metamorphic processes

A.4. Summarize magma formation in a global geodynamic context

A.5. Interpret how mineral assemblages relate to chemical composition and pressure-temperature conditions of formation.

A.6. Explain the links between metamorphic processes, plate tectonics and geological time

B. Cognitive/Intellectual skills/Application of Knowledge

On successful completion of the Module students should be able to:

B.1. Identify the common rock forming minerals of igneous and metamorphic rocks in both hand specimen and thin-section.

B.2. Identify key textural/micro structural features of igneous and metamorphic rocks and appreciate the significance of such features with regard to geological processes that have taken place.

B.3. Assign a name to an igneous or metamorphic rock on the basis of its mineralogical and textural characteristics, and appreciate the environment(s) of formation.

B.4. Explain the petrogenesis and evolution of igneous rocks using geochemical data

C. Practical Knowledge/ Professional Skills

On completion of this module, students will be able to demonstrate the following skills:

C.1. Rock/mineral identification in hand specimen and in thin-section using a transmitted light microscope.

C.2. Ability to interpret phase diagrams relevant to igneous systems and petrogenic grids relevant to metamorphic systems on the basis of mineral assemblages recorded in the rock.

C.3. Ability to make detailed and annotated petrographic sketches from thin-section observation and to summarize the salient features and relate the chemistry of the system to the environment of formation.

C.4. Prepare, process, interpret and present data using appropriate qualitative and quantitative techniques and packages

Welcome to JRN3311: Industrial Attachment & COM3311: Industrial Attachment! This module is practical-oriented and helps students relate what they learned theoretically through structured classes and self-directed study to real contexts of the work environment in a newsroom or Public Relations and communication field in Rwanda. Please read the module handbook here

 This module is composed of three components namely Criminology, Sociology of Law and Psychology and Law. Each Component is taught by a separate lecturer in a complementary way since the components were put together to their common goals.

At the end of this module:

ü  Students should be able to differentiate criminology from other criminal sciences. They should also know main doctrines of criminology, criminality factors and the contribution of victimology to the improvement of apprehension of criminal phenomena.

ü  Students should be able to know the influence of the culture on law and vice-versa. They should as well be able to analyse economical, social, political and cultural problems that affect changes and evolution of law.

ü   Students should be introduced on the  intervention of psychology and law in the legal processes. They should as well be introduced to the broad area of legal psychology to give them an appreciation of the application of psychological principles and methods to the legal system.

ü  Students will also learn how psychologists are employed in and interact with the legal system.

Mode of assessment

All along this module, students will be evaluated through assignments, quiz and a final exam

Thank you very much for your kind attention

This module is designed to teach the fundamentals of leadership, governance and strategic management in the health care setting plus an overview of core hospital operational functions. Core hospital operations include human resources, infection prevention and control, patient flow, clinical standards, medical records management, supply chain.

This course covers the development of effective e-learning resources and strategies for supporting students in online education. Participants learn to create interactive instructional materials and use Learning Management Systems (LMS). It also explores practical applications of AI in Education

This module taught in the programme of Postgraduate Certificate in Learning and Teaching in Higher Education, intends to equip Higher Learning Institutions teachers with practical skills in using ICT tools to design, create and manage a module in eLearning System. 

This module will introduce to you different concepts of description statistics such as different types of data, methods of data correction, data presentation, measures of central tendency and dispersion. Probability helps us to make decision when we are not sure of what will be the outcome. This module will introduces to you to concepts of counting techniques, the sample space, event and the probability on an event. The axioms of probability, the concept of random variable, and the some discrete as well as continuous distribution functions will discussed with clear examples found in our daily life.
