Course Objectives

This course is intended to provide students an exposure to the practice of mining engineering in real life.


Course Content

A minimum of 4 weeks (20 working days) of practical training in an area where unit operations of mining engineering are performed. With the prior approval of the summer practice sites by the department, student complete their training at one of the following areas: Underground mining, surface mining, mineral processing or any related operations.


Course Learning Outcomes

It provides the students with valuable on-the-job practical experience considering social, ethical and comminication skills which enhances the educational experience received in the undergraduate Min E program.The practice is expected directly to understanding, formularing and analyzing a matter ,an issue or a problem quantitatively. It is expected to  report ;what the matter is,why that matter is studied, what measurements are taken to analyze the matter of the study,what the results of the measurements and calculations are,and what those results  mean.
