Open positions
Information technology, drones, the 3D virtual world as well as a strong international career perspective offer extraordinary opportunities in geology and mining – the field still mistakenly associated only with the oil-shale industry. The whole world is open to Estonian geologists, they use the most modern technology and the demand for the future workforce is high, already among those still studying.
