Yes. You can start learning chemical engineering on Coursera for free in two ways:

1. Preview the first module of many chemical engineering courses at no cost. This includes video lessons, readings, graded assignments, and Coursera Coach (where available).
2. Start a 7-day free trial for Specializations or Coursera Plus. This gives you full access to all course content across eligible programs within the timeframe of your trial.

If you want to keep learning, earn a certificate in chemical engineering, or unlock full course access after the preview or trial, you can upgrade or apply for financial aid.‎

To learn chemical engineering, start by identifying foundational courses that cover essential topics such as thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and chemical reaction engineering. Engage with interactive content, participate in discussions, and apply your knowledge through practical exercises. Consider joining study groups or forums to connect with peers and enhance your understanding through collaboration.‎

Typical topics covered in chemical engineering courses include material and energy balances, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, chemical reaction engineering, process design, and safety. Additionally, courses may explore environmental engineering principles, transport phenomena, and process control, providing a comprehensive overview of the field.‎

For training and upskilling employees in chemical engineering, courses like Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics 1 and Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics 2 are excellent choices. These courses provide practical knowledge that can be directly applied in the workplace, helping teams to improve processes and innovate solutions in their respective industries.‎
