As the technology leader in the wind power industry, Vestas wants to attract the best talents and ideas. Qualified students are invited to submit applications for a PhD project through our Global University Programme. If accepted into the programme, Vestas will contribute to the expenses elated to their project. The student and the university supervisor will jointly define the project in co-operation with Vestas. The student will work closely with us through their supervisor and a Vestas engineer, who plays a direct part in their project.
As a PhD student in the Global University Programme, you typically spend 50% of your time at a Vestas Technology R&D unit. We are located in Denmark (headquarters), the UK (primarily blades), Singapore, India, Germany (drive train only), and USA. The remainder of the time is spent at your university.
