New Elective in CBEE: Electrochemical Engineering
Undergraduate & Graduate sections now available!
CBEE is offering a new elective course in the Fall of 2024 about electrochemical engineering.
Electrochemistry is a multidisciplinary science concerned with the relationships between the chemical, surface and electrical properties of materials. It can be applied to a variety of fields within the physical, chemical and biological engineering and sciences.
Time: Tuesday - Thursday 1:00 - 2:15 pm, Fall 2024
Location: Janet & Walter Sondheim 107
The undergraduate and graduate sections of the course are combined.
Undergraduate Section: ENCH 488
Class: Electrochemical Engineering
Section: ENCH 488 - 01 (7372)
Graduate Section: ENCH 648 - 02
Special Problems in Chemical Engineering
Section: ENCH 648 - 02 (7561)
Must be taken for 3 credits.
Why You Should Know Electrochemistry?
• Application of Electrochemistry? Energy Storage & Conversion, Semiconductors, Biosensors, Corrosion, Electrification of Industry 4.0 (Steel & Cement) and Electrocatalysis (CO2 reduction)
• How relevant to CBEE? Three pillars of electrochemistry are thermodynamics, transport & kinetics.
• Demanding Field! Reports from U.S. National Academy of Science, Department of Energy, New York Times, Nature Journal call for training next-generation engineers in electrochemistry to address “Sustainable Engineering Solutions for Environmental Systems” and “Decarbonization of Energy Systems” issues.
What Course Offer?
- Understand the principles of electrochemical processes and basic electrochemical analysis techniques using hands-on practices.
- Link the principles of electrochemistry to electrochemical processes and suggest design solutions to engineering problems.
