Course Overview
The Acoustic Materials and Metamaterials certification course is offered to the participants by IIT, Roorkee through Swayam. The course is a verified postgraduate program in the domain of mechanical engineering and advanced dynamics and vibration. The course teaches the students about sound waves, noise pollution, methods to control them and manipulate them, and other aspects related to the field. The Acoustic Materials and Metamaterials program is said to be the first-ever organized coursework prepared in the domain of acoustic materials which also talks about acoustic metamaterials.
The program is a free online course and can be availed at zero cost. The course has adopted the self-paced learning technique so that students can take their own time to complete the course. The Acoustic Materials and Metamaterials certification syllabus can be completed in the estimated time of 8 weeks as well as more than 8 weeks. The program does not have any last admission date and candidates can take part in the program whenever they want according to their willingness. Candidates can also be a part of the certification process by getting through the proctored exam fulfilling the eligibility criteria announced by the platform.
