Program Description
CSM mining engineering students study the principles and techniques of mineral exploration and underground and surface mining operations. Studies include rock mechanics, rock penetration, rock fragmentation, plant and mine design, mine ventilation, surveying, valuation, industrial hygiene, mineral law, mine safety, computing and operations research. Throughout the mining curriculum, a constant effort is made to maintain a balance between theoretical principles and their engineering applications. The mining engineering graduate is qualified for positions in engineering, supervision, and research.

The curriculum is designed to ensure that the graduates
(1) become broad based mining engineers who can tackle the problems of both hard and soft rock mining, regardless of whether the mineral deposit requires surface or underground methods of extraction,
(2) have an opportunity, through elective courses, to specialize in one or more aspects of the mining engineering profession,
(3) are interested in an academic or research career, or wish to pursue employment in related fields, have a sufficiently sound scientific and engineering foundation to do so effectively.
