Sharp offers green gizmo course

Sharp aims to do its part in preserving the environment by working with Osaka University’s Graduate School of Engineering by offering a course on how to manufacture next-generation gadgetry in a more environmentally neutral fashion. This lecture-based course will run until March next year, focusing on clean production technologies for creating products from solar panels to the LCD displays. One thing’s for sure – Sharp has the pedigree to back up this course, and underlines its sincerity by providing $850,000 to fund the course as well as half a dozen of its own engineers to teach alongside another six university lecturers. Hopefully this initiative will see green gadgets being readily available in the future.
