    Seminars: These are student-led seminars. Students will work on a group of 3-4 students. Each group should
    propose a topic or will be assigned a topic on solar energy applications. They will present their
    findings in a 20-minute presentation followed by questions and discussions. Each group will
    also submit a written report on the topic presented at the seminar. Both the oral presentation
    and the written submission will be assessed.

    Workshop: One workshop session will be organized for students to learn lab tests of solar radiation and
    photovoltaic panels’ performance. One assignment will then be given to students. A group
    report of the assignment will be submitted, which will also be assessed.
