Graduate EducationThe PhD students at the Division participate in the following compulsory courses(30/60 credits are required for Licentiate/Doctoral exam):22 |• TLC102 Teaching, learning and evaluation 3 credits• TLE206 Ethics, science and society 3 credits• Science theory 3 credits• Fundamental environmental theory 4.5 creditsIn addition there are a number of courses at other departments at Chalmers, forinstance in the area of Control Engineering etc, which the Ph.D. students can alsoattend, as well as more electric power oriented courses at other universities.Graduate coursesWind Energy, modelling, control and grid integrationConducted at Alcala University, Madrid, 1-5 June 2009 TorbjörnThiringerThe course dealt with fundamental modelling of wind turbines with a focus ondynamic behaviour. Electric systems as well as their power quality impact andtheir interaction with the power grid were covered. Furthermore the response ofwind energy installations to network disturbances and their ability to ride throughthese disturbances were covered. Finally, the course dealt with the topic of thestability impact that wind energy installations can have on the grid as well asexperiences from measurements.Power Electronics for Transmission System ApplicationsConducted at Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm, MassimoBongiornoThis is a three days intensive Ph.D. course, held for the first time at the RoyalInstitute of Technology (KTH) in May 2009. The aim of the course is to give adeeper understanding of the application of power electronics in power systems,both for AC and DC transmission. The course includes theoretical lectures,computer exercises and laboratory demonstrations. KTH and Chalmers offer thecourse jointly. The course instructors are Massimo Bongiorno (Chalmers), LennartÄngquist (KTH) and Staffan Norgga (KTH/ABB).Graduate thesesBelow is a list of the graduate theses that were presented during 2009.
