Summer School in Wind Turbine Technology 10th – 22nd August 2008

Are you interested in getting a special insight into Wind Turbine Technology together with other Danish and international students in your summer holidays?

In cooperation with the wind power industry in Denmark, the Engineering College of Aarhus offer a Summer School with focus on Wind Turbine Technology.

The purpose of the Summer School is to enable you to apply your engineering competences to Wind Turbine Technology challenges, and to gain an insight into the functions of the turbines and the interaction between the different sub-components and their demand profiles.

Throughout the Summer School, you will be working creatively in teams across the different engineering disciplines and an international environment.The lessons will be conducted in English.

Free participation
Participation in the Summer School is free - sponsored by companies in the wind turbine industry and the Engineering College of Aarhus. Deadline for application is the 15th of May 2008.
