Competency aims
The course aims to train students on critical
understanding of sustainability, climate, and
energy and material resources, and how engineers
can design and produce products or systems to
function more sustainably.
Learning outcomes
At the end of the course the student is
expected to be able to understand the principles
of sustainability, how they apply to energy and
materials, and how engineers work towards
efficient use or control of resources.
Course contents
Theory-based instruction on sustainability
principles, climate and resources, energy
generation and storage, renewable materials,
material recycling, carbon capture, storage and
utilization, and climate engineering.
