From hydrogen cars to renewable energy infrastructure, there has been a huge shift in consumer demand for sustainable technologies.

On this two-week course from Deakin University, you’ll explore applications of hydrogen engineering, including a deep dive into cutting-edge advancements in hydrogen fuel cell systems.

Explore hydrogen energy systems, including PEM fuel cells

You’ll begin this course with an overview of hydrogen fuel cells, delving into their basic principles, electrochemical processes, and applications.

Building on this foundation, you’ll explore the inner workings of proton-exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell systems and their subsystems, understanding their design, operation, and components to drive advancements in clean energy and sustainable engineering.

Grasp balance of plant (BOP) to support clean energy infrastructures

BOP refers to the supporting components and systems necessary to operate the fuel cell stack, such as hydrogen storage, cooling systems, and power electronics.

With the support of interactive models helping you visualise a digital representation of a fuel cell at different levels, you’ll learn to design, select, and optimise these components to ensure efficient and reliable fuel cell operations.

Understand the latest in green technology with Deakin University experts

Throughout this course, you’ll be supported by Deakin University’s team of experts from their world-class hydrogen research centre, Hycel, and collaborate with a community of like-minded learners driving sustainable change.

In unpacking real-world case studies and gaining practical applications, you’ll emerge from this course with in-demand skills to excel in the expanding hydrogen sector and contribute to a more sustainable future.
