About

The degree programme Sustainable Mining and Remediation Management imparts knowledge and skills to the students for self-reliant scientific work in the fields of environmentally friendly mining, mining remediation, and vitalisation of industries. The programme is based on the worldwide unique German know-how on mining remediation, especially for uranium, lignite, and ore mining. A further part in this context is brownfield revitalisation. It was created as a concept of a unique, research-oriented study programme.
