Smart grid technology project: From research to teaching

On September 12th, 2017 the Alpen-Adria-Universität Klagenfurt hosted the meeting of the Erasmus+ project Smart Grid Technology – A Master Program.

I am convinced of the importance of modernizing our curricula and establishing international cooperation which can enhance the interactions in both research and teaching involving students and scientists exchanges.

Andrea Tonello

It is a three years project that aims at the development of a Master program in smart grid technology through the collaboration between a consortium consisting of 3 European and 4 Egyptian universities (Aberdeen University, Klagenfurt University, Seville University, Arab Academy for Science and Technology, Alexandria University, Aswan University, Helwan University) with key competence in different fields: electrical power and control engineering, information and communications engineering, mechanical/chemical engineering, industrial/management engineering.

The project will develop an up-to-date program with 24 courses, new laboratories, and involvement of the key stakeholders through a number of workshops, seminars and surveys.

Smart grid topics and classes developed in this project will serve to broaden and strengthen our Master program in Information and Communication Engineering and render it more attractive
