The Second Joint Geothermal Course

Introduction Following the success in 2010, Gadjah Mada University, The University of Auckland and GNS Science will soon run the Second Joint Geothermal Course in June and September 2011. This year our course is supported by the International Geothermal Association (IGA). We offer 3 courses, namely: 1. Basic Geothermal Geoscience and Engineering (20 25 June 2011) 2. Geothermal Reservoir Modelling (22 28 June 2011) 3. Geothermal Geoscience for Reservoir Monitoring (September 2011) Those participating in Geothermal Reservoir Modelling have a chance to attend the first two days of Basic Geothermal Geoscience and Engineering (additional charge will be applied see Registration Form). The instructors are geothermal experts from Gadjah Mada University, The University of Auckland and GNS Science (New Zealand). The course programs include exercises, discussions, mini projects and a field trip to Dieng geothermal field. Complete lecture notes and sets of stationary/workshop kits will be provided however, the participants are advised to bring their own laptop. Each successful participant will receive a Certificate of Attendance. Award will be given to the best participant of each course. A cultural evening (sponsored by Gadjah Mada University) will be organized in a beautiful suburb of Yogyakarta to introduce the culture of Java and to provide a relaxing social function and networking. The courses are organized by The Geothermal Research Center, Faculty of Engineering and will be run at the Faculty of Engineering Campus, Jalan Grafika 2, Yogyakarta. We warmly invite geothermal geoscientists and engineers of Indonesia and the neighboring countries to enroll into these course programs as soon as possible due to limitation of seats. The course and lecture notes will be given in English
