Course Details
• Fundamentals of Green Materials Science: An introduction to the principles and practices of green materials science, including the sustainable production and use of materials. This unit will cover the basics of material properties, processing, and applications, with a focus on reducing environmental impact. • Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of Materials: This unit will cover the methods and tools used to evaluate the environmental impact of materials throughout their entire life cycle, from raw material extraction to end-of-life disposal. Students will learn how to conduct LCAs and use the results to inform material selection and design decisions. • Biomaterials and Bio-based Polymers: This unit will explore the properties and applications of biomaterials and bio-based polymers, including their potential to replace traditional fossil fuel-based materials. Students will learn about the latest research and development in this field, as well as the challenges and opportunities associated with the commercialization of biomaterials. • Sustainable Manufacturing and Processing Technologies: This unit will cover the latest advances in sustainable manufacturing and processing technologies, including green chemistry, clean production, and resource-efficient manufacturing. Students will learn how to design and optimize processes to minimize environmental impact and maximize efficiency. • Advanced Materials Characterization Techniques: This unit will cover the advanced characterization techniques used to analyze the structure and properties of materials at the atomic and molecular level. Students will learn how to use these techniques to understand the behavior of materials and inform the development of new materials with improved performance and sustainability. • Circular Economy and Materials Management: This unit will explore the concept of the circular economy and its application to materials management. Students will learn about the principles of circular economy, including resource efficiency, waste reduction, and closed-loop systems, and how they can be applied to materials science and engineering. • Policy and Regulations for Green Materials: This unit will cover the policy and regulatory landscape for green materials, including the key international, national, and regional frameworks that govern the production, use, and disposal of materials. Students will learn about the role of policy in promoting sustainable materials practices and
