Course Overview

The Heat Transfer certification is meant for students who want to get admitted to an undergraduate course. The course covers the broad subject line of heat transfer that takes place in different processes of different kinds of chemical industries. Candidates who are willing to learn from this college will be able to learn the basics of different modes of heat transport. 

The estimated time taken to complete the Heat Transfer certification syllabus is 12 weeks. Since the course is a self-paced program, students will be able to complete the curriculum according to their willingness. The course is provided by the Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay, and will contain 60 lectures in totality.

The Heat Transfer online course also provides the provision of certificates to the students. Participants can achieve a certificate for this online program by qualifying for the examination conducted by the creator offline. For a better learning experience of the course for the students, students will be provided with all the study notes, tests, quizzes, assessments, and other activities without any cost.
