We are pleased to announce the addition of a new module to this year's course - Organic Electronics!

The polymer industry is constantly evolving, with polymer electronics being one of the fastest areas of both innovation and commercial growth.¹ The IRC is expanding its training portfolio to match this market demand by the introduction of a 10^th module to the course programme, to give an overview on the design, preparation and uses of organic conjugated polymers and oligomers in the electronics industry.

The new module compliments the established course which already covers a wide area of topics in everything from polymer engineering, physics, chemistry, biomaterials and nanotechnology.

The individual modular fee, including Organic Electronics, is £330.00. Discounts are available for multiple choices and you can choose to take part in as many or as few of the modules as you require. Accommodation is not included in the price, but full catering is provided throughout the day, and you will be provided with a personalised set of electronic and bound course notes.

The full 10 day course fee is substantially discounted to £2250.00.

If you interact with polymer scientists, either as a customer, supplier or within a research and development team and need to understand more about how your products and or processes work, then this is the course for you.
