- Federation of European Mineral Programs
Federation of European Mineral Programs (FEMP) is a (legal) organisation in which 25 leadingmultinational companies participate together with nine leading European Universities. These offer thejoint European Mining, Minerals and Environmental Program (EMMEP) which is an integrated program with threespecialisations. The Federation is the co-ordinating body for matters regarding education and research covering all aspects of Mineral Engineering in a large part of Europe.
The three specialisations are::- Mining Engineering (European Mining Course (EMC)):- Mineral Engineering (European Mineral Engineering Course (EMEC)):- Geotechnical and Environmental Engineering (European Geotechnical and Environmental Course (EGEC))
The participating universities are: Aachen (RWTH), Berlin (TU Berlin), Delft (TU Delft), University of Exeter (Camborne School of Mines), Freiberg (TU Bergakademie Freiberg), Helsinki (HUT), Kosice (TU Kosice), Miskolc (TUMiskolc) and Wrocław (TU Wrocław).
The programs are developed for the students of the nine universities, however a limited number of outside students participate as well. As a result between 50 and 60 students join the EMMEC program annually.One of the objectives of FEMP is to assist students financially with the extra cost, when being abroad. In order to be able to subsidise the students for these extra costs FEMP receives annual contributions from its members. The industry is also represented in FEMP via Euromines.
