10/20/2025Energy resources, geothermal energy, water resources, minerals, soils ? the Earth's resources should be both developed for human use but also protected. The sensible, sustainable use of georesources requires management based on legal guidelines and economic framework conditions. One of the most crucial tasks, is to carefully evaluate and direct invasions into the Earth's system such as climate and environmental changes. The consideration and limitation of the effects of unavoidable natural disasters such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, floods, and tsunamis in heavily populated areas illustrates an additional challenge. Raw material and ground water reserves must be developed and maintained and humans' habitat and natural balances must be protected and restored. These current and often controversial fields of application show that georesource management is becoming increasingly important and can make crucial contributions to the future of humanity. The complexity and multifacetedness of the related problems requires interconnected approaches to solutions and a combination of technical knowledge in the geosciences and economic, legal, and technical disciplines. RWTH's course of study in georesource management is a unique program that offers geoscientific education in an interdisciplinary curriculum. Students profit from the close collaboration between the classic geological and mineralogical sciences and geography, commercial geography, and raw materials and disposal engineering. Important content from economics, law, civil engineering, and environmental engineering are also included. The science content of the course of study is supported by social science, business administrative, and legal material, so that for the first time ever, geoscientists are educated, who can use their knowledge to fill in the gaps between the legal, political, and business disciplines. Aside from their basic studies students are able to select 8 of 15 concentration modules to pursue their personal interests. They can choose from the following specializations: One concentration module can be designed individually with academic performances at a partner university. Students will specialize in a profile area of their choosing only in their Master studies.
