The coursework for a concentration in Electrochemical Energy provides the MS candidate with an understanding of the fundamentals and technological challenges associated with batteries and fuel cells.
Furthermore, students may choose to learn about electrochemical processes that will continue to rise in importance as sustainable routes to leverage renewable energy for the production of chemicals, fuels, and materials. Students satisfy chemical engineering core and technical elective requirements with no more than 2 courses outside of the department.
Any combination of four courses (12 points total) satisfies the Electrochemical Energy Concentration Requirement.
*Scientist to Engineer (S2E) students are eligible to take this elective during the first semester and count the course as within the department of chemical engineering.
