Overview

Course structure and majors

In the first semester of the Wind Engineering program at Flensburg University of Applied Sciences you will lay the foundations for your future success: You will attend classes on the impact environmental factors have on the wind industry, on technical maths and technical writing in English.

The second semester of your studies will focus almost entirely on wind turbines, from aerodynamics to rotor structures. You will also broaden your engineering expertise further.

In the third semester, you will choose one of three majors:

Mechanical Engineering dynamics, materials and rotor blades
Electrical Engineering electrical machines and system integration
Structural Engineering tower and structure design

Something that all majors share is a project in which you will design and build a wind turbine together with other students. You will attend an international small wind turbine contest in the Netherlands with the result of your project.

In the fourth semester, you will focus on your master’s thesis.
