ABOUT THE COURSE: The course will focus on different corrosion protection methods, like cathodic and anodic protection, design change, change of environment, inhibitors, and coatings. In addition, it will discuss the effect of metallurgy, processing, microstructure and surface texture on the corrosion protection. This is very important for students and industry personnel. It will also help them to assess the degree of corrosion damage and accordingly select suitable protection route. INTENDED AUDIENCE: 1. Bachelor and Master students2. Industry people, where corrosion is a problem3. PhD student working in corrosionPREREQUISITES: Chemical Thermodynamics, Phase transformation and ElectrochemistryINDUSTRY SUPPORT: Oil companies, Chemical companies and Power sector, construction, Steel
