Advanced materials are at the heart of Europe’s industrial future – enabling breakthrough technologies, clean energy solutions, digital transformation, and safer, more sustainable products. From semiconductors and lightweight composites to biomaterials and nanotechnologies, advanced materials are essential to strengthen Europe’s competitiveness, sovereignty, and resilience. However, Europe faces a critical shortage of skilled talent. To lead in innovation and industrial deployment, the EU will require a new generation of professionals trained in advanced materials, digital skills, and sustainable design.
The European Advanced Materials Academy, led by EIT RawMaterials, answers this challenge by equipping learners, professionals, and organisations with the skills and credentials needed to keep Europe ahead.
