SINReM – International Master of Science in Sustainable and Innovative Natural Resource Management

EIT RawMaterials Academy - SINReM

Germany, Belgium, Sweden

Environmental Science, Renewable Energy, Sustainability

Master of Science (MSc)

Sustainability is more than just a buzzword. Raw materials are one of the fastest depleting resources on Earth. A steady and sustainable supply of many of these materials is vital for a decarbonising society, renewable energy infrastructure, electric mobility, and also consumer products and electronics. The outdated make-take-use-dispose model is no longer valid in a world of finite resources. In order to deal with this challenge, three leading European universities cooperated to develop a new Erasmus and master’s program — the International Master of Science in Sustainable and Innovative Natural Resource Management (SINReM).

MSc in Energy-Efficient and Environmental Building Design

Lund University

Sweden

Environmental Science, Renewable Energy, Sustainability, Engineering, Architecture

Master of Science (MSc)

Buildings are responsible for a large share of our global energy use. Energy use is in fact the main determinant of a building’s global environmental footprint, considering its life span. Students graduate with advanced knowledge, skills and competencies within the area of energy-efficient and environmental building design in heating-dominated climates. Our goal is to train highly skilled professionals who will significantly contribute to and influence the design, building or renovation of energy-efficient buildings and relating to renewable energy supplies, taking into consideration the architecture and environment, the inhabitants’ behaviour, needs, health and comfort, as well as the overall economy.
