Our initiative features the Alberta Chamber of Resources Chair in Mining Engineering, the Canada Research Chair in Natural Resources Uncertainty Management, and the Centre for Computational Geostatistics.
Mining professionals plan both open-pit and subterranean mining operations, oversee the development of mine shafts and underground passageways, and create systems for mineral transportation to processing facilities. The curriculum covers explosives and blasting techniques, rock mechanics, economic principles, various mining disciplines, business and environmental considerations, alongside fundamental engineering studies in mechanical, civil, electrical, and chemical engineering.
