Biomass and waste conversion to fuels, heat and power
The Graduate School aims at providing the basic scientific and technical knowledge to solve problems related to conversion of biofuels.
This is achieved by collaboration in post-graduate course arrangements, shared student supervision by student and supervisor visits between the base universities, and intensive industry-academia networking.
The senior researchers in the base universities (CTU, DTU, NTNU, ÅAU) will have a central role in the BiofuelsGS-2 activities as lecturers and supervisors. The Graduate School will be directed by a part-time coordinator.
The BiofuelsGS-2 will continue collaborating with other Graduate Schools in the Nordic countries by collaborative courses and seminars etc.
