2022 TJU Online Summer School – Achieving Carbon Neutrality with Technology
Online Program
Tianjin University (TJU) is the first modern university in China, founded on October 2, 1895, and possessing a distinct strength in engineering. To promote the application of science and technology (S&T) to achieving carbon neutrality and to cultivate global citizens with deep knowledge and a sense of responsibility, Tianjin University will hold the 2022 TJU Online Summer School from 22 August to 1 September.
The theme will be “Achieving Carbon Neutrality with Technology”. The program offers 6 modules, introducing the latest developments in carbon neutrality by first-rate professors and researchers. As the pandemic currently hampers physical mobility, this online program will provide students access to expertise from a variety of fields, the opportunity to interact with experts and international students from around the world, and the chance to experience TJU’s academic atmosphere without having to travel.
