Potential Available Courses:
Course Name: General Electrical Science (GSCI1500.61)
Course Description:
This course covers the basic theory and application of electrochemical science. It is targeted toward students who want to better understand the significance of electrochemistry, how electrical, chemical, and mechanical energy are linked. In this course, you will combine the concepts of Gibbs Free Energy, electron flow, and chemical transformation. Course content builds upon chemical reactivity to include electron transfer, electromotive force, and energy storage. Applications to advanced energy systems will also be discussed.
Semester: Fall 2025
