The University of Applied Sciences Nordhausen pursues a fundamental system — oriented education in the domain of development, planning and operation of renewable energy systems. In addition to solid engineering basics the energy — and process-related principles of solar thermal, photovoltaic or wind energy systems and their integration into existing — and here in particular electrical — supply systems takes the centre of the training. Special attentions will be put to renewable energies in the vehicle technology — keyword fuel cell — and to bio energy systems.

Graduates of this study program are to acquire expertise of renewable energy systems. This means for the example of a wind power plant knowledge of the fluid mechanics at the rotor, of the shaft bearing, of the conversion of mechanical into

electrical energy and of the feed of the electric energy into the public power supply system. In order to open the graduates a broad spectrum of vocational possibilities, the training also involves classical power engineering and additional subjects. Latter are for example information and diagnostic systems, management in the energy industry, energy law or the use of recycling materials for power generation.
