European Wind Energy Master (Erasmus Mundus)

1) Candidates must have obtained a BSc diploma of substantial quality and level corresponding to at least 3 years studies at University, equivalent to 180 ECTS.

2) The programme builds upon a first degree such as a Bachelor\xc2\x92s degree or an equivalent qualification in a related field. The four tracks have different degree requirements.

• For the Rotor Design track applicants must hold a Bachelor\xc2\x92s degree in either Mechanical, Aerospace Engineering, Physics or a degree with equivalent core content.
• For the Wind Physics track applicants must hold a Bachelor\xc2\x92s degree in either Mechanical engineering, Aerospace engineering, Mathematics or Physics or a degree with equivalent core content.
• For the Electrical Power Systems track applicants must hold a Bachelor\xc2\x92s degree in Electrical engineering, Physics or a degree with equivalent core content.
• For the Offshore Engineering track applicants must hold a Bachelor\xc2\x92s degree in either Civil engineering, Structural engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Marine Engineering, Physics or a degree with equivalent core content.

3) Proof of English language proficiency (certificates older than two years are not accepted)*:

• A TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) score of at least 90 (internet-based test). Please note that we only accept the TOEFL internet-based test.
• Or IELTS (academic version) overall Band score of at least 6.5.

*An exception is made for students from DTU, TU Delft, NTNU Trondheim or the University of Oldenburg who have successfully completed a BSc or MSc in English.

4) The applicant\xc2\x92s qualifications must include a strong working knowledge of mathematics and experience in programming and applicants must document that they have fulfilled the following minimum requirements:

• Mathematics: 25-30 ECTS
• Physics: 10-15 ECTS
• Engineering design methodology: 5-15 ECTS
• Applied mathematics, numerical methods, and elementary programming using e.g. MATLAB or Fortran

5) For the tracks Wind Physics, Rotor Design and Offshore Engineering, students must document the following minimum requirements

• Statics, mechanical vibrations, and strength of materials: 10-15 ECTS
• Fluid mechanics, engineering thermodynamics, hydrodynamics and heat transfer: 10-15 ECTS
• Materials science, and production technology: 10-15 ECTS

6) For the tracks Electric Power Systems, students much document the following minimum requirements

• Power electronics: 10-15 ECTS
• Grid Integration: 10-15 ECTS

7) A working knowledge at bachelor level of at least four of the following five subjects is prerequisite for the central courses of the MSc program:

• Engineering design methodology
• Statics, mechanical vibrations, and strength of materials
• Fluid mechanics

8) Applicants that are enrolled in an integrated five year degree with no bachelor entry level must have passed 180 ECTS and will be evaluated on an individual basis.

9) BEng graduates are assessed on an individual basis.

10) For all tracks, the BSc Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) must be at least 75% of the scale maximum. Preliminary transcripts are acceptable when applying, but the final degree certificate is required before the start of the programme. Applicants with an MSc and/or professional experience will be assessed on an individual basis.

11) In the essay (see application webpage) it must also be explained why the applicant is interested in EWEM and the partner universities.

12) When evaluating the application, the lack of one or more of these requirements will be weighed against the other qualifications of the applicant, and possible admission might be considered.
