Organometallic Catalysis in Sustainable Chemistry offers foundational knowledge to tackle sustainability challenges from a chemical perspective, primarily through homogeneous organometallic catalysis. The course centers around dihydrogen (H₂) as the key sustainability molecule, utilizing it in various roles, such as in processes that produce or consume dihydrogen. With these tools, the course explores methods for storing H₂, upgrading biomass, and utilizing CO₂ to create industrially valuable commodity chemicals.
Highly beneficial and engaging for students, the course follows a logical progression. It starts with the basics of organometallic chemistry and then applies this knowledge to catalysis, with a focus on sustainability. By completing the course, students will gain essential tools to independently explore organometallic catalysis in sustainable chemistry.
This course is designed for students or professionals, typically with a Bachelor's degree in chemistry or equivalent relevant industrial experience, who have an interest in homogeneous catalysis and sustainability.

DTU focuses on research in technical and natural sciences that contributes to the development of society. As an industrially orientated university, our goal is to supply high-level international research based on combining theory with constructing models and empirical methods.
When will I have access to the lectures and assignments?
To access the course materials, assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience when you enroll in a course. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid. The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
What will I get if I purchase the Certificate?
When you purchase a Certificate you get access to all course materials, including graded assignments. Upon completing the course, your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile.
Is financial aid available?
Yes. In select learning programs, you can apply for financial aid or a scholarship if you can’t afford the enrollment fee. If fin aid or scholarship is available for your learning program selection, you’ll find a link to apply on the description page.
