Welcome to the Faculty of Geosciences, Geoengineering and Mining!
Global environmental changes, climate change, scarcity of natural resources, environmentally friendly interventions in the earth to supply the economy with necessary resources - these are the challenges and tasks that are at the centre of Freiberg's geosciences. Together with national and international partners, we are working on the development of state-of-the-art technologies and processes for the responsible use of our planet's finite resources. We are also facing up to the ecological challenges of the 21st century! 27 professors teach and conduct research in these areas. There are currently 894 students enrolled on 3 Bachelor's, 9 Master's and 2 Diploma degree programmes at the faculty.

Research and Educational Mine "Reiche Zeche"
As a university specialising in mining science, TU Bergakademie Freiberg operates its own research and teaching mine. Not only are numerous research laboratories and test stands located underground here, but the students of Faculty 3 also receive in-depth practical teaching through internships and experiments.
You can't do without them: What are rare earths?
TUBAF was a guest on the WDR children's television programme "neuneinhalb" on the topic of "Rare Earths". The Institute of Mineralogy (Prof. Thomas Seifert) and the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (Dr. Franziska Lederer) provided technical support for the programme.
The rocks must first be crushed, then finely crushed and ground to finally enable the extraction of the rare earths.
