The wind power industry is developing rapidly with many new technologies frequently being designed and implemented. Also, new problems are revealed due to the many different wind power systems in the electrical grid. Some of the future wind installations will be very large offshore wind farms that will act as power plants and support the electrical grid in terms of stability, power balance with services like frequency support, reactive power, etc.  In the future, it is expected that many small wind turbines will be installed, perhaps as plug and play units at the household level. These wind turbines could be both vertical and horizontal axis turbines. This will create many new challenges for wind power engineers. With the specialisation in Wind Power Systems you are taught how to handle issues such as these.

More programs from the university

Aalborg University offers interdisciplinary studies where bachelor courses (basic study programmes) are followed by masters and Ph.D. courses (subsequent specialisation). The university offers 10 different undergraduate programmes in English across five faculties:

  • The Faculty of Humanities
  • The Technical Faculty of IT and Design
  • The Faculty of Social Sciences
  • The Faculty of Engineering and Science
  • The Faculty of Medicine


Each of the five faculties has its own schools with full time bachelor education spanning over three years and designed to prepare students for master and Ph.D. education at a high academic and international level. Since the Ph.D. programmes are focussed on training researchers, students are researching independently and being actively involved in Aalborg’s research community.

All study programmes at AAU are based on a unique model of teaching and learning: the problem based and project organized model based on real life challanges, also referred to as "The PBL Model" and "The Aalborg Model". This model has become both nationally and internationally recognized as an advanced and efficient learning model, and ot is a trademark for Aalborg University.

Aalborg University is among the world's leading universities regarding research within health technology, wireless communication, energy, computer science, innovation economics, and comparative welfare studies.

More than 20.000 students are enrolled at Aalborg University, and approximately 10% of those are international students from countries all over the world. The university employs approximately 2.000 faculty staff and approximately 1.400 administrative/technical staff.
