According to the student exchange agreement and dual doctoral degree training agreement signed between the College of Energy Engineering in Zhejiang University and the Graduate School of Energy Science in Kyoto University, in order to promote the cooperation between two universities, the online course “Applied Chemistry for Biomass Conversion” of Kyoto University was opened for the graduate students from both college for the autumn and winter semester of 2020-2021. Nine outstanding graduate students from Zhejiang University were selected to participate in the course. The course was successfully conducted from October 6, 2020 to February 2, 2021.

The online course has won high praise from the students who attended it, for they have learned about the theories and technologies of biomass energy conversion and have known the characteristics, processes and application background of the typical conversion technology. All participants have got grade certicifates issued by the Graduate School of Energy Science, Kyoto University.
