CEE 107A: Understand Energy (CEE 207A, EARTHSYS 103, ENERGY 107A, ENERGY 207A)
NOTE: This course will be taught in-person on main campus, lectures are recorded and available asynchronously. Energy is the number one contributor to climate change and has significant consequences for our society, political system, economy, and environment. Energy is also a fundamental driver of human development and opportunity. In taking this course, students will not only understand the fundamentals of each energy resource - including significance and potential, conversion processes and technologies, drivers and barriers, policy and regulation, and social, economic, and environmental impacts - students will also be able to put this in the context of the broader energy system. Both depletable and renewable energy resources are covered, including oil, natural gas, coal, nuclear, biomass and biofuel, hydroelectric, wind, solar thermal and photovoltaics (PV), geothermal, and ocean energy, with cross-cutting topics including electricity, storage, climate change and greenhouse gas emiss

CEE 108: Explore Energy (CEE 208, ENERGY 108, ENERGY 208)
The Explore Energy seminar series is a weekly residential education experience open to all Stanford students and hosted by the Explore Energy House. Course content features current topics that affect the pace of energy transitions at multiple scales and in multiple sectors. Consistent with Stanford's interest in fostering community and inclusion, this course will facilitate cross-house exchanges with residents in Stanford's academic theme houses that have intersections with energy, catalyzing new connections with common interests. Each quarter will include some sessions that feature Stanford itself as a living laboratory for energy transitions that can be catalyzed by technology, policy, and social systems. Stanford alumni with a range of disciplinary backgrounds will be among the presenters each quarter, supporting exploration of both educational and career development paths. Optional daytime field trips complement this evening seminar series.

CEE 121: Global Korea: Understanding the Nexus of Innovation, Culture, and Media (CEE 221)
Description: South Korea is quickly emerging as a global powerhouse and center of innovation culture, media, and lifestyle. Recent global phenomena including k-pop, the Academy Award winning movie 'Parasite', BTS, and the Netflix Series 'Squid Game' have demonstrated the growing appeal for South Korean cultural innovation and lifestyle around the world. Further propelled by technology giants like LG, Samsung, and others, South Korean culture is becoming a global sensation. This seminar course, taught jointly at Stanford University and the Stanford Center at the Incheon Global Campus in South Korea, will explore these topics through invited speakers and vibrant discussion.

CEE 130R: Racial Equity in Energy (AFRICAAM 131, CEE 330)
The built environment and the energy systems that meet its requirements is a product of decisions forged in a context of historical inequity produced by cultural, political, and economic forces expressed through decisions at individual and institutional levels. This interdisciplinary course will examine the imprint of systemic racial inequity in the U.S. that has produced a clean energy divide and a heritage of environmental injustice. Drawing on current events, students will also explore contemporary strategies that center equity in the quest for rapid technology transitions in the energy sector to address climate change, public health, national security, and community resilience. Prerequisites: By permission of the instructor. Preferable to have completed Understand Energy (
CEE 107A/207A/
EarthSys 103/
CEE 107S/207S) or a similar course at another institution if a graduate student.
