The Master in Mining and Geological Engineering provides solid training in mining and exploration techniques in the current framework of the digital transformation of the mining industry, based on the best practices of environmental sustainability, safety, smart mining, automation, and robotics. The role of a Mining and Geological Engineer involves exploration, development, and mining management, but also support for construction works, namely tunnels and other excavations in rock masses.


EIT RawMaterials Academy - RaVeN
RaVeN – MSc in Mining Engineering
MSc
Full time
4 semesters
On-Campus
English
Today‘s Europe needs a skilled workforce for the raw materials industry, which forms the basis for the development of innovative technologies and industries of the future. The large imbalance between raw material acquisition and consumption that exists in Europe requires a greater commitment to securing supply chains. Such a strategy demands the acquisition of a skilled, entrepreneurial workforce with an awareness of sustainable activities between technology, economics, society, and the environment. The RaVeN EIT-Labelled master’s program in Mining Engineering responds to this challenge by offering an innovative education program that offers a comprehensive approach to resources with an emphasis on a holistic value chain and on closing the gap between the supply of, and demand for, raw materials. The objective will be pursued along an active learning path involving students and looking for unconventional solutions that can get us closer to a more self-contained (natural resource re-circulating) and, therefore, more sustainable economy. The three cooperating university partners, representing a broad geographical and cultural spectrum, and collaborating with the two sides of the Knowledge Triangle, contribute a combination of expertise and highly entrepreneurial mindsets to the program.

The raw materials sector is entering a new era that requires companies to transform their operations, create new business models, and foster a digital culture. In this context, the minerals industry is facing a changing talent landscape, necessitating of new skill sets in their workforce. Companies need to ensure that their staff is properly constituted to support this transformation process. In the raw materials sector, technology is not an end in itself. The greatest impact will come from embedding different new technologies as an integrated whole and all across the mining value chain. Each opportunity is significant in itself, but achieving the full potential of all opportunities is possible only if they are pursued in an integrated way. The key to doing this is to have cross-functional teams that understand both mining operations and the technologies and are able to integrate new technologies into operations. Companies must be able to get the right people with the necessary skill set to maximize value creation. Miners must prepare their workforce today to meet the demands of tomorrow’s digital age or risk future growth and innovation. Over time, mining work will evolve toward knowledge-based jobs that solve the same challenges as today but do so through different means, and at the same time, face new challenges. The mining companies that recognize this shift today and best navigate the changes ahead will be the winners of tomorrow.
