Electrochemical Engineering

3 Credits

Fundamental concepts of electrochemistry, covering the thermodynamics, kinetics, and transport phenomena that occur in both liquid and solid state electrochemical systems. This course draws upon concepts from physical chemistry, chemical engineering and materials science to address the phenomena that govern the performance of electrochemical devices, and that drive important engineering phenomena such as corrosion. The course will serve as a basis for a career in electrochemistry as it applies to energy issues. Prerequisites: Senior level in ChE or instructor approval.
