Course Overview

The Aqueous Corrosion and Its Control online course is a 12 weeks training program offered by Swayam, an initiative by the Government of India’s Ministry of Education. Aqueous Corrosion and Its Control training teach about corrosion failures of components which affect all industries and cost a country around 3.5 percent of its GDP. Furthermore, it has an impact on the environment, component safety, limited resources, and dependability. Aqueous Corrosion and Its Control syllabus cover Effective corrosion control which provides a fundamental grasp of electrochemical concepts, metallurgical features, and a thorough comprehension of the industrial situation. This course covers all of these topics in depth.
