Program Requirements

***Enrolment in this program is subject to departmental approval, please consult with an Academic Advisor within the appropriate program further to discuss your suitability in this program.***

The Department offers a Major in Mining Engineering leading to an accredited B.Eng. degree in Mining Engineering. The program is offered in one of two streams: English Stream for non-CEGEP students and Bilingual Stream (six courses in French) for CEGEP students, in collaboration with the mining engineering program at Ecole Polytechnique in Montreal. Students in the Bilingual Stream are required to take six mining courses, designated by subject code MPMC, at Ecole Polytechnique in the latter part of the program. In addition to regular courses and laboratories, the curriculum of the Major in Mining Engineering programs include seminars, colloquia, and student projects reinforced by field trips to industrial operations.

B.Eng.; Major in Mining Engineering

Program credit weight: 144-145 credits
Program credit weight for CEGEP students: 115-116 credits

Entry into the Major in Mining Engineering
Students in Mining can be admitted only into the B.Eng.; Co-op in Mining Engineering. There is no direct entry to the Major in Mining Engineering (which does not include the work terms required for the Co-op program).
Students may enter the Major in Mining Engineering if they wish at any point in time during their study.
To transfer into the Major program, students must obtain approval from the department adviser and submit a Request for Course Authorization form to the 看片视频 Engineering Student Centre (Frank Dawson Adams, Room 22).
