INTRODUCTION Course Summary and Annual Report FEMP 2011 - 2012 At the end of the eighties it became clear at many universities that, in order to offer a high quality course, it was necessary to look for innovative and economical ways of teaching. In order to optimize and enhance the quality of education at Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands, it was decided in 1990 to send the mining students during their final year to Imperial College’s Royal School of Mines in London. This was the first initiative of its kind in Europe. In 1996 TU Delft took the next initiative to establish a joint curriculum during the fourth year, with RWTH Aachen, Aalto University and Imperial College as partners. These universities were primarily chosen because of existing links, similarity in structure, culture and the wish to internationalise. The general thought was that each partner would concentrate on subjects in which it was already strong. Thus a joint, high quality, curriculum could be realised. The concurrent effect was that each university would not have to maintain the entire curriculum, which in turn would yield cost reductions. The course was named European Mining Course (EMC). The success of the EMC led in 1998 to the start of a second option, the European Mineral Engineering Course (EMEC). The emphasis of the courses is on Mineral Processing, Metallurgy and Recycling. In 2003 a third option started; the European Geotechnical and Environmental Course (EGEC). In this program the emphasis is on geotechnical and environmental subjects. The organisational aspect is the same in all three cases. The following six European Universities (TU Delft, Aalto University, RWTH Aachen, Exeter University, Wroclaw University of Technology and Miskolc University of Technology) are now involved in these courses, which are offered as three options of one program: the European Mining, Minerals and Environmental Program (EMMEP). (the same abreviation was used for the Erasmus Mundus scholarship program (Erasmus Mundus Mining and Mineral Programme), of which the last cohort students will be 2012-2014). There is also exchange taking place between students of the organizing universities and a number of associated universities. Australian, Canadian and North / South American students joined the program through exchange with TU Delft. Because of the small class sizes the course has a very favorable professor / student ratio. The partners of the consortium have a well-established research and educational background and long-standing links with Industry and other research / educational institutes. Entry requires a Bachelors degree in resource engineering, or an equivalent discipline. Correspondence concerning course matters of EMMEP, EMC, EMEC, EGEC or FEMP can be addressed to the Course Director: Ir. Hans de Ruiter, TU Delft, to the following e-mail address: info@femp.org.
