Descripción
The PhD in Mining Engineering was created in 2010, motivated by the need to train highly specialized graduates that contribute to developing the next generation of highly technological and sustainable mining systems. The Program has a multidisciplinary character and it is aimed at graduates from Engineering and/or Earth Sciences.The graduates of the Program will have a broad understanding of the mining process, and will be able to lead scientific research and technological development applied to the mining activity. The student will have the opportunity of specializing on one of the following areas: ore reserve estimation; rock mechanics; design, planning and mining technology; automation and robotics for the mining industry; and geometallurgy.
The Program is conceived as a full-time program and considers 4 training courses, 4 guided research courses, 3 elective courses, and a thesis, which altogether should take the student 4 years to complete.
