Level:  master academic studies

Upon end of the studies student will receive a title: Master engineer of mining

Mining Engineering Study Programme is distinguished by flexible curriculum, which represents logical continuanuation of the Undergraduate Academic Studies. Students, which have gained general engineering education during Undergraduate Academic Studies and which have created level and character of specialization according to their aspiration and aptitude, are offered further in depth knowledge and certain specialized skills during Master Studies. Graduate students of this study programme, in relation to module, are receiving diploma of master engineer of mining and simultaneously are gaining clearly profiled competences, which make them relevant on a labor market. Programme lasts for one year (two semesters) or 60 ECTS, has a clear structure and it is divide into seven modules.

Basic goal is to organize and perform educational process in order to provide to graduate students, master engineers of mining, skills and competences, which are suitable to selected specializations in mining. Methods applied to achieve this goal are including modern and interactive tuition forms, which are completely integrated with teaching in classrooms and laboratories and with field practice. Graduated students of Mining Engineering master academic studies are supplementing undergraduate engineering education with suitable specializations within selected module. The goal is to enable master students to understand complex aspects of myriad industrial processes and to provide them with theoretical knowledge, as well as field and laboratory research, which are base for solving practical problems. Special attention is given to understanding of ambivalent context of natural resource problems, i.e. understanding of necessity for research and exploitation with simultaneous conservation of mineral resource, which are bases of the sustainable development. The goal of this study programme is to provide experts with capability for interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary approach to examination of complex natural, business and economical processes and systems.

Expected outcomes are defined by theoretical knowledge and practical skills, which graduate students of Mining Engineering master academic studies will possess, where specific details will be defined by selection of suitable module. Regardless to selected discipline, it is expected that graduate students will be capable to independently formulate proofs for given hypothesis, to apply knowledge to understand complex industrial systems in different contexts and scale. Students should be qualified for quality and quantity data processing by using suitable software packages, computer aided solving of numerical problems and numerical modeling of various processes. Capability for using of new references, modern communication devices and any career development possibilities are necessary outcomes for further education on doctoral studies.

Completed Undergraduate academic studies in corresponding or related scientific field, with total amount of 240 ECTS credits, at least.
