Use AI to design circular, waste-minimising material and product flows.
AI-Assisted Circular Economy Pathways explores how data and machine learning help move economies from linear take-make-waste toward circular systems. You learn to model and optimise material flows, identify opportunities for reuse, recycling and waste valorisation, and support product-lifecycle and design decisions that keep materials in use. The course connects analytical methods โ material-flow analysis, optimisation and predictive modelling โ to real circular-economy strategies in industry and policy. You finish able to apply AI to a circularity problem, from material flow to design decision. A verified e-Certificate of competency and e-Marksheet from the Deep Science & Technology Consortium.
