Solar-Driven Chemistry
Solar-Driven Chemistry
Our Challenge
This course offers students the opportunity to gain knowledge of solar energy, solar cells, solar fuels, and artificial photosynthesis. Part of the course consists of typical lectures and the other part of the course will be resolving a challenge as part of a team provided by Liquid Sun (https://www.liquidsun.co/). The challenge is done completely online and there is no on-site studying.
