The Department of Mineral Resources Engineering in Kozani – one year later…

The Department of Mineral Resources Engineering was founded by Law 4610/2019 (FEK 70/Α/07.05.2019) and is part of the School of Engineering of the University of Western Macedonia in Kozani. It is based in the Koila campus, where all of its academic structures, and its fully equiped training and research labs are located. The foundation of a Mineral Resources Engineering Department in Kozani was a strategic choice made by the University in order to cover the mining and quarrying activities in Northern Greece and critical developments in the energy production sector.

The first priority of the Department was the development of a complete five-year study programme, with modern subjects and three directions, that corresponds to Professional Rights of the Mineral Resources Engineer (FEK 187/Α/5-11-2018). The study programme was approved by the University Senate and is the current undergraduate programme study of the Department.
