Annual Review Page 4 DTU Mechanical Engineering Annual Report 2008 Page 5 Introduction The start of 2008 was also the start of the new Dept. of Mechanical Engineering which was a re- sult of the expansion and reorganization of DTU. Two new groups, Manufacturing Engineering together with Materials Science and Engineering supplemented the existing activities including Solid mechanics, Fluid Mechanics, Energy Engineering and Coastal, Maritime and Structural Engineering resulting in a strong team covering the field of mechanics and materials. The very positive results from the first year in the new department have shown that the reorganization has been a success. The subject areas of the department covering mechanics, manufacturing engineering, energy engineering and materials are the basis for a considerable part of the Danish industry. Dept. of Mechanical Engineering is aware of their responsible for the supply of young engineers and research results to Danish industry, and a close co-operation with national and international partners has a high priority. An important event in 2008 was a two day seminar at Hotel Hvide Hus in Køge where all em- ployees were invited. The objective of the seminar was to get to know each others and to discuss values, strategy and professional content of the new department. More than 130 employees participated in the seminar and the response has been very positive. The department managing group decided from the beginning to follow an offensive strategy in the implementation of a new procedure of PhD-funding, where the responsibility for the distribution of PhD-funds was transferred from the DTU-dean of Research to the departments. 30 new PhD-projects were initiated in 2008 with an external co-funding of more than 80% which more than meet the goal defined by DTU. A consequence of the reorganization of DTU was that a service check of the educations was needed. A “task force” referring to the Head of Education was appointed and the first result of their work is presented including proposals for recommended study plans and revised bachelor and master programs. We are convinced that the revised study plans will increase the number of skilled students who chose to study at Dept. of Mechanical Engineering. At the end of 2008 the budget ended up to be more tight than expected. However, Dept. of Mechanical Engineering is now well trimmed for the coming challenges and we are looking forward to continue the co-operation with industry and universities all over the world.

The award was presented at a ceremony in Milan and professor-ole-sigmund-1) In Danish included 1000 €. The master thesis was entitled “Design and modeling of a methanol plant for the REtrol vision” and was about computer modeling of the energy flows in a methanol plant. The model used biomass and electricity from wind turbines as main energy inputs for the methanol production.

The main activities of National Institute of Diplomacy (NID) since its inception has been based on studies, training and research for understanding the relationships among all countries and the roles of the States, Inter-Governmental Organisations (IGOs), International Non-Governmental Organisations (INGOs), Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs), and the Multi-National Corporations (MNCs). The NID endorses the view that fields of Diplomacy as well as International Relations are both an Academic as well as a Public Policy field and can be either positive or normative as it both seeks to analyse and formulate the foreign policy of the particular country. According to the NID, the fields of Diplomacy and International Relations draw upon such diverse areas as economics, history, international law, philosophy, geography, social work, sociology, anthropology, criminology, psychology, women’s studies / gender studies, and cultural studies. They involve a diverse range of issues including globalisation, state sovereignty, international security, ecological sustainability, nuclear proliferation, nationalism, economic development, global finance, terrorism, organised crime, human security, foreign interventionism and human rights. The ability to practice diplomacy is one of the defining elements of a country.

  • EUROPEAN COMPANIES in INDIA Reigniting Economic Growth Foreign Direct Investment
    EUROPEAN COMPANIES IN INDIA Reigniting Economic Growth Foreign Direct Investment Adith Charlie EUROPEAN COMPANIES IN INDIA: REIGNITING ECONOMIC GROWTH 1 European companiesForeign Direct in India Investment1 AIM OF THE STUDY Bilateral relations between the European Union and India have evolved from aid to trade in the last two decades. We would go a step further and say that the EU and India are on course to become strategic partners. The proposed Bilateral Trade and Investment Agreement (BTIA), which has been in the works for several years, will further strengthen the relationship by en- trenching it in sound institutional framework. Research on the subject of European investments in India is important for policy-makers and social scientists given the present economic realities. Both the EU and India face strong eco- nomic headwinds. While investors in India are wading through what has been a tantalising period for doing business, the European Union has not fully recovered from the aftermath of the sovereign debt crisis. The current business environment in India has raised some difficult questions for policymakers and industry observers. Is India losing its place of prominence in the global order for Foreign Direct Investments (FDI)? Should European investors look beyond India due to the country’s recent tryst with slow growth rates and policy uncertainty? This study aims to answer some of these questions while highlighting Europe Inc’s economic con- tribution to India between 2004 and 2013. Our study finds that European firms encounter myriad complexities in India but the smarter ones learn to stay focused on the mushrooming opportunities.

These three countries were chosen for three reasons. First, they are major global actors, second they are culturally different from the west and finally they all share a level of resentment against Europe promoting its values given their historical legacies (although in greatly different ways). The question this report aims to answer is how are EU’s efforts for human rights promotion received in these three countries. To answer this question four major issue areas were identified as angles of study: 1.
