Course Overview

Thermodynamics describes the fundamental laws and principles that govern the transfer and transformation of energy. These laws also state how energy transitions affect the properties of substances. All these laws are formulated based on observations in nature. The Laws of Thermodynamics online course will help you understand these laws in detail.

The Laws of Thermodynamics course curriculum will cover all three laws, along with their corollaries. This subject is of utmost importance for all branches of engineering since most engineering processes involve the transfer of energy. The course will discuss these using physical topics, mathematical expressions, and examples based on real-life application.

The Laws of Thermodynamics online training will clear the physical concepts involved and enable you to get rid of any misleading information regarding thermodynamic processes and applications. You also have the chance of receiving a course completion certificate, for which you will have to register for the final offline proctored exam. The training has a UG level difficulty.
