Green Computing with Sustainability is an interdisciplinary course that explores how computing technologies can be designed, used, and managed in an environmentally responsible manner. The course introduces learners to the principles of green computing and their importance in addressing global challenges such as climate change, energy consumption, and electronic waste. It emphasises the role of information technology in supporting sustainable development while minimizing ecological impact.
Learners will study the environmental effects of hardware production, software execution, networking, and data center operations. Key topics include energy-efficient hardware design, power-aware software, virtualization and cloud computing, sustainable data center management, and green networking practices. The course also covers life cycle assessment of IT equipment, focusing on procurement, usage, reuse, recycling, and safe disposal of electronic waste.
In addition, students will explore sustainability metrics and standards such as Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE), Energy Star, EPEAT, and ISO environmental frameworks. Emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, Internet of Things (IoT), edge computing, and smart grids will be examined for their potential to improve energy efficiency and environmental monitoring.
Through case studies, practical activities, and project-based learning, learners will analyze real-world sustainability challenges and propose green IT solutions for industries, institutions, and smart cities. The course fosters ethical awareness and social responsibility by encouraging learners to make informed decisions about resource usage and digital practices.
By integrating computing knowledge with sustainability principles, this course prepares learners to contribute to environmentally conscious innovation and responsible digital transformation across various sectors.
Who this course is for
⭐ Undergraduate and postgraduate students in Computer Science who want to integrate sustainability principles into their technical knowledge.
