Expertise in resources

The TU Bergakademie Freiberg specialises in teaching and research into the fundamentals and processes relating to raw materials, energy and materials along the entire value chain. Raw materials are explored and extracted, refined into materials, processed into materials and recycled as secondary raw materials.

This leads to trend-setting questions that are dealt with in the interdisciplinary fields of expertise of mathematics/computer science, natural sciences, engineering, geosciences, materials science and economics. TUBAF combines these as a resource university in interdisciplinary research and future-orientated student education.
