Vision

The basic vision of the Mining and Metallurgy Institute Bor is a long-term view of the world of work, the world of technologies, the world of development, the world of man’s position in and out of the work process, the world of cultural creations, the world of equal and dignified participation in the world regions.
Determinations of the future society vision determine at the same time the behavior of participants in the processes of work in MMI from the civilization, cultural, technological and typical-individual point of view.
Research activity, based on technological forecasts 2000-2025, is the basis of development program of MMI.
MMI, as a part of the country’s scientific-research system, is the basic effort for the arrival of developed countries and equality in cooperation.
Since MMI, in the field of research activity, engineering, consulting, services in the fields of geology, mining, metallurgy, chemical technology, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, civil engineering, architecture, informatics, management systems and related scientific disciplines in the field of non-ferrous metals and non-metals, develops the all strategic and operational development programs with the main objective of rapid and equal participation in the international community based on the available resources and created capacities.

Mision

The need for development the research and implementation projects, programs, services, consulting in the field of non-ferrous metals (primarily copper and associated metals) and non-metals is the main purpose of the existence and development of the Institute.
The basic strategy of action in terms of selection the work programs and determinations to maintain the competitive skills in time and given conditions of surrounding is the realization of high-quality products/services in accordance with the international standards, determining the strategy of development and continuous improvement the programs and procedures in the function of consumer demand.
