The primary objective of the proposed course is to provide the basic concepts of photoredox processes and its
applications to the students and faculty members to seek knowledge and experience from reputed International
faculty. Course participants will learn these topics through lectures and hands-on experiments. The lectures will
be delivered by Professor Dr. Burkhard König, who is renowned scientist in the area of visible photoredox
chemistry. The course co-ordinator, Dr. Alakesh Bisai, will share few lectures and tutorials. There will be a
series of twenty lectures within the proposed time frame.
