He studied at Athénée Royal in Brussels, then the School of Mines, Liege and graduated at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1889.

Sauveur founded the first metallurgic laboratory in a university. From 1924 to 1939, he held the "Gordon McKay Professor of Mining and Metallurgy" title at Harvard University.
