Swedish School of Mines
Luleå University of Technology is Sweden’s mining university – and home to the Swedish School of Mines. We shape the future of sustainable mining.
Here, research, education and advanced infrastructure come together across the entire value chain of minerals and metals – from exploration to recycling.
It’s where future engineers, researchers and industry partners shape the sustainable solutions the world needs.
As the world faces the dual challenges of a growing population and climate change, the demand for metals and minerals is rapidly increasing. These raw materials are essential for electrification, clean energy technologies, and the shift to a sustainable society. To drive this transition, the world needs skilled engineers who understand the entire value chain – from exploration and production to recycling and circular solutions.
Swedish School of Mines is an initiative to deliver the skills and competence for the whole mining and recycling value chain that the world demands through the green transition. With a wide range of master’s, engineering programmes, as well as a uniqe bachelor’s programme, we offer students the opportunity to gain that full-spectrum knowledge – and become part of the solution. With top-tier education, strong industry ties and a clear focus on the green transition, this is where your impact begins.
You can become a part of shaping the future of mining and meeting the demand for metals and minerals – with purpose, excellence and impact. Meeting the future – responsibly and together.
