Beschreibung des Programms

The education is a 3-year technical Bachelors program. The education focuses on the sustainable rock value chain and covers how to find, mine, extract and recycle metal and minerals as well as environmental, social and economic aspects. The education is based on project-oriented learning in collaboration with companies in the sector.

A project course runs through the first and second year where we will work with issues along the rock value chain in collaboration with companies. The course has both theoretical and practical elements such as experiments and field exercises that are carried out in project form both at Luleå University of Technology and at companies within the sector. During the autumn, the first year, the project course begins with an introduction to the rock value chain in parallel with basic courses in mathematics and physics and an introduction to Geosciences. During the spring, the project course continues in parallel with basic courses in Mathematics, Chemistry and Mineralogy. In the second year, the project course continues in parallel with courses on the various parts of the rock value chain, structures and deformations, metallurgy and mining as well as basic courses in mathematics, geochemistry and programming. The third year begins with courses in work environment, raw material economics and mathematical statistics, followed by elective courses and is finalized with a Bachelor thesis.

Informationen über das Institut

Luleå University of Technology

The Luleå University of Technology is experiencing strong growth with world-leading competence in several areas of research. Our research is conducted in close collaboration with industries such as Bosch, Ericsson, Scania, LKAB, SKF, and leading international universities. The Luleå University of Technology has a total turnover of SEK 1.7 billion per year. We currently have 1,650 employees and 15,500 students.

The Luleå University of Technology is the northernmost technical university in Scandinavia, located at the east coast of northern Sweden only 100 km south of the Arctic Circle with dramatic differences between summer and winter. From spectacular northern light, plenty of snow and a frozen sea to warm summer days at some of the beaches and 24 hours daylight enable generous possibilities for outdoor activities the year around.

The location is within a short distance from some of the most active areas of mining and exploration in Europe. The university has a strong position in education and research regarding exploration, mining, metallurgy, and the environment. This is reflected by the long tradition of interaction with the exploration and mining industry and industry funding of research.
