Course Objectives
This course is intended to provide students an exposure to the practice of mining engineering in real life.
Course Content
This is a complementary course to MINE 300. Students are required to complete MINE 400 in a professional area not covered in MINE 300. 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, students 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 MinE 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.
