You will study planning, design, testing, and the operation of open-cut and underground mines, but also get the opportunity to put your knowledge and skills into practice in class and at mining sites. 
• Examine applied geomechanics, material science, engineering design, geology, haulage and transportation, and explore surveying, ventilation, computer application and automation, mineral processing, and mine planning.
