Welcome to EMerald
Master’s Programme in Georesources Engineering
EMerald is an Erasmus Mundus and EIT-labelled Master’s programme created to establish the right balance between knowledge of resources and process-engineering techniques.
A sustainable supply of raw materials is vital for the future of Europe. Become part of our mission to achieve this balanced vision.
The energy and environmental transition is a major challenge for securing the well-being of future generations.
The EMerald master in georesources engineering aims to train a new generation of engineers with an entrepreneurial mind-set, capable of identifying and sustainably managing the mineral and metal resources that are essential for the green energy transition.
With a unique position at the interface between Earth Sciences and Engineering, the two-year master (120 ECTS) is designed for students with a background in both geology and applied sciences (mining, metallurgy, chemistry). The master, fully taught in English, offers an innovative curriculum from hands-on experiences in the university labs to the use of digital tools and a specialisation in primary or in secondary resources. It is jointly organized by 4 top-level European Universities, each of which hosts the students for at least a semester and delivers a Degree.
