Summer studies before starting studies

If you are as worried about climate change as we are at LUT University, we invite you to enroll in one of three Massive Open Online Courses that we offer to help turn climate anxiety into effective climate action. You can also start earning credits towards your degree: anytime, anywhere, and at any speed.

  • In our first MOOC, we focus on solutions in the transport sector with the goal of mitigating climate change, making a transition towards sustainable energy systems, and achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
  • In our second MOOC we focus on Power to X processes, which will assist in developing energy systems that meet the needs of future generations, provide sustainable fuels and industrial materials, and ensure a growing global population has sufficient food and water.
  • Our third MOOC addresses issues related to the sustainable design and production of a wide range of goods and services that we need for a safe and comfortable existence. The things we buy every day have a story to tell us, one that we can control from beginning to end. By applying life cycle thinking, we have the ability to create a sustainable circular economy.

Each MOOC examines the choices that all of us can make to create a stronger feeling that we are in control of our own fate through education, cutting-edge research and personal choices. The goal of each MOOC is to show that we have much more power than we are sometimes able to imagine. Together, we can build a more sustainable world.

Begin your climate action today.
