3. How current is the course content—does it include emerging materials like nanocomposite-modified bitumen?

While the course centers on polymer-modified and bio-bitumen, there’s no explicit coverage of nanomaterials like carbon nanotubes.
However, it does delve into polymers, emulsions, and performance testing—foundational topics helpful for understanding future materials.
Advanced materials like nanocomposite modifiers remain on the research frontier, not yet incorporated into course content.
The course framework—focused on performance, rheology, and innovation—makes it an excellent launchpad for exploring nanotech in bitumen later.
Learners interested in cutting-edge additives would benefit from complementing this course with more specialized materials research literature.
