has completed the following course:
Combatting Corrosion: An Introduction to SOCORRO
The University of Kent and SOCORRO
Over two weeks, this online course explored corrosion and its environmental and economic impact, explaining the chemical reaction and the elements involved. The course introduced SOCORRO, an international project between European and UK universities working on ground-breaking solutions to tackle corrosion, such as AI. It also provided an opportunity to reflect on every occurrence of corrosion and how they could be prohibited. SOCORRO was funded by the European Union Interreg 2 Seas Programme.
