It combines top-level mineral processing laboratories, pilot plants with teaching in extractive metallurgy, mineral processing and sustainable mining. You’ll do industry-linked coursework, internships and a thesis with a cluster of 31 mining companies.
Career Outcomes: Graduates can work in mineral processing, extractive metallurgy and sustainable mining as process engineers, metallurgists, mineral processing engineers, project engineers, environmental managers, research scientists, consultants in mining companies, technology suppliers, recycling firms and research institutes.
Top reasons to study Erasmus Mundus Joint Master in Sustainable Mineral and Metal Processing Engineering
- A unique opportunity to study mineral and metal processing in four countries: Finland, Austria, Croatia, and Chile.
- Top-level mineral processing laboratories, pilot plants, analytical equipment and recognized scholars and experts.
- Work-life related studies in close cooperation with the mining industry. Internship and thesis opportunities offered to students.
- Strong ties with the processing industry and a cluster of 31 mining companies.
- Programme coordinated by the University of Oulu, ranked within the top 51-75 universities in Mining & Mineral Engineering in Shanghai Ranking´s Global Ranking of Academic Subjects 2022.
Students will gain broad competence in the main areas of mineral beneficiation emphasized in
- better mineral recovery from primary and secondary sources
- metal recycling (urban mining)
- by-product recovery meeting the demands of today’s industry and environmental protection as an integral part of the circular economy.
Students will move between the universities organizing PROMISE, at least three of these:
- University of Oulu, Finland
- Montanuniversität Leoben, Austria
- University of Zagreb, Croatia and
- Universidad Tecnica Federico Santa Maria, Chile.
The language of instruction in PROMISE is English. Additionally, students can learn the partners’ national languages for getting a multidisciplinary education.
Students will be awarded multiple master’s degree diplomas and a Diploma Supplement.
EMJM-PROMISE programme is particularly suited for graduates in mineral processing, metallurgical and chemical engineering, chemists, raw materials scientists and engineers, mining engineers, materials scientists, or related engineering fields.
