"Analysis of Transport Phenomena I: Mathematical Methods"
"In this course, you will learn how to formulate models of reaction-convection-diffusion based on partial differential equations and to solve them the old-fashioned way, by pencil and paper. You will also learn the art of approximation—how to obtain useful solutions by simplifying a model without sacrificing the key physics. At MIT, 10.50 is a required subject for all first-year graduate students in chemical engineering, but it also attracts students from other departments. This online course is suitable for anyone interested in learning the principles of continuum modeling. Although the examples are mostly from chemical engineering, no prior knowledge is assumed, beyond basic undergraduate applied mathematics. The modeling concepts and mathematical methods you learn in this course will advance your career in industry or academics. While your friends and co-workers may be able to run an experiment or computer simulation, you will also be able to derive simple formulae to explain the data and guide rational design. There is growing demand for such mathematical skills in most technical careers and graduate programs today.

"Infrastructure Development, PPPs and Regulation"
"Do you know why governments around the world are eager to partner with the private sector for developing infrastructure? Do you want know about the key implications of Public-Private-Partnerships (PPPs)? Are you looking for factors which drive a successful PPP experience and what pitfalls to avoid? In this course I talk about infrastructure, its characteristics, drivers for commercial outlook and key implications of commercialization/PPPs. The biggest constraint to growth in India and the developing world is infrastructure. Infrastructure, being a natural monopoly, has traditionally been the responsibility of the government for development. However, capacity (financial and human) deficit in government led to the involvement of private players with greater risk sharing, moving from the traditional contract mode to the PPP mode. The advent of PPPs brought in significant challenges, both for Government and the private players. Roles and mindset needed redefinition, especially on the Government side. Appropriate regulation became more critical. There is need to learn from both successes and failures of PPPs in infrastructure sector to bring in a greater maturity and professionalism in this eco-system by developing competencies and perspectives. Relevant questions in this context would be: How do you structure infrastructure projects? How do you assess risks and manage them ? How do you share risks between the government and PPP player? How do you do tendering and bidding? How do you develop sustainable concession agreements? How do you develop an appropriate regulatory eco system? While addressing the above questions, this course will provide a grounding in theory and further build on case studies from various infrastructure sectors, leveraging India’s rich experience in PPPs. There is much that a global audience can learn from this course as the implications of commercialization remain constant, irrespective of geography. The present mood in the infrastructure sector is somber, with huge opportunities on the one hand and a great deal of skepticism on the other. Non Performing Assets (NPAs) are piling up in Public Sector Banks and infrastructure is a very big contributor. Several things are going right and several things are going wrong! However, there are a plethora of opportunities in this ambiguous situation. Hence, this course has something for lawyers, public policy practitioners, economists, strategic investors in infrastructure industry, financial analysts in banks/sovereign wealth funds/ infrastructure focused mutual funds and equity research, turn around specialists in stressed assets, private equity investors, investment bankers, credit rating professionals, management consultants and management graduates."

"Riesgo biológico y bioseguridad en el entorno laboral"
"Este curso se desarrolló con el apoyo del Proyecto Empodera, implementado por La Fundación Suiza de Cooperación para el Desarrollo Técnico, Swisscontact, y cuenta con el auspicio de la Embajada de Suecia, como parte de sus acciones en la formación técnica para la prevención del riesgo de contagio de SARS-CoV-2 en el ambiente laboral. Los agentes biológicos son un conjunto de organismos vivos capaces de producir alteraciones de salud en los trabajadores expuestos. Representan un factor de riesgo en el entorno laboral suponiendo un enorme reto en su prevención al no ser fácilmente percibidos y al no existir un amplio desarrollo normativo y técnico que permita su abordaje oportuno. Cuando nos referimos a agentes biológicos, los relacionamos casi exclusivamente con trabajadores de la salud. Se requiere de una visión más amplia sobre estos agentes y de los múltiples entornos y trabajos en los que pudieran estar presentes, que permitan su identificación y evaluación oportunas, conocer los efectos a la salud humana y las estrategias de prevención y abordaje efectivo en la prevención de accidentes y enfermedades relacionadas con su exposición. Ante la inminente presencia del nuevo virus SARS-CoV 2, productor de la enfermedad conocida como COVID-19 y siendo el entorno laboral un potencial sitio de transmisión de este virus, resulta conveniente su identificación como un agente biológico con alto riesgo de contagio a través de personas y superficies y que requiere de la implementación de protocolos de bioseguridad."

"e-Learning Course on Urban Rail Development"
"Rising urban populations are putting pressure on urban transportation systems, which must expand to meet growing mobility and accessibility needs in cities around the world. To serve this increasing demand for mobility without the congestion, air pollution, road safety, and social exclusion associated with motorization, many cities are looking to rapid transit systems to provide high-capacity and high-quality transportation that is economically, environmentally, and socially sustainable. When appropriately planned and properly implemented as part of a larger public transportation network, urban rail systems can provide rapid urban mobility and enhance quality of life. Therefore, urban rail projects must be carefully approached as development projects. This e-learning course is based on The Urban Rail Development Handbook, a recent publication from the Transportation and Digital Development Global Practice of the World Bank that brings together the expertise of World Bank staff and numerous international specialists to synthesize international “good practice” for the development of urban rail projects. This course is organized into 7 modules that walk through critical considerations at each stage of project development, empowering you to ask the right questions and introducing you to the key tools available to answer them: system and corridor planning, preliminary design, detailed design, procurement and financing, construction, and operations and maintenance."
