Finally, we have developed a significant wind energy
educational program at UMass. For many years, we have ofered a
course on the fundamentals of wind energy. This course is directed
at senior level or graduate students in Mechanical Engineering and
it covers the most important topics in wind energy engineering.
A second course is Wind Turbine Design. It builds upon the first
one, and provides in-depth examination of how turbines should be
built. Our experience with these two courses provided the back-
ground for our textbook
Wind Energy Explained: Theory, Design
and Application
(Wiley, 1st ed., 2001; 2nd ed., 2009). Finally, a
recently developed course on ofshore wind energy provides the
engineering background for this newly developing field.
