Applied Geomechanics for Mining
The Department of Mining Engineering offers the Diploma in Applied Geomechanics for Mining
The program is oriented to engineers, geologists and others related engineering professionals. This program provides students with a broad-based fundamental knowledge of geomechanics and mine design. It covers contents related to rock mechanics, underground mines, open pit mining, and numerical simulation.
It is also designed to strengthen students' communication, problem-solving, critical thinking, and teamwork skills.
Objectives
The main goal of the Diploma is to provide to our students with state-of-the-art tools, processes and methodologies in geomechanics.
To achieve that goal, we have designed an academic program that incorporates techniques from other disciplines in order to improve the traditional approach. To meet this ambitious goal, we have selected a top-level faculty, academics of excellence with the trajectory and field experience necessary to meet the demands of these days.
