COURSE DESCRIPTION
This course is taught in Swedish.
The circular economy can now be considered an established part of the transition to a sustainable society. But what does it really mean and what is new?
This course will give you an introduction to the circular economy with a focus on materials. You will learn what the circular economy is, how it relates to sustainable development and the key principles of the circular economy.
Adding on to this introductory course, there is a course on recycling and a course on metals in a circular society.
The course is free of charge, taught online with no scheduled meetings and can be followed at your own pace. You can take the course without any subject-specific prior knowledge.
You will be continuously examined by answering questions related to each part. Examination is through automatically corrected questions and reflection tasks. To pass, you must answer all questions correctly. There is no limit to the number of times you can answer the questions. The reflection questions allow you to stop and give answers from your own perspective. These are not graded.
