MOOC on Life Cycle Assessment: free online course on sustainability and OpenLCA tools for research projects
Unite!Energy will offer an online MOOC focused on Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and sustainability analysis. The course will provide both theoretical foundations and practical tools, enabling participants to apply LCA methodology to their own PhD technologies and research projects.
The programme will also include a hands-on exercise using OpenLCA software, which will be reviewed and corrected by the professor. Participants are encouraged to use this opportunity to perform a preliminary sustainability assessment of the innovative technologies developed within their research.
