MINING ENGINEERING




Mining Engineers suppose to study general engineering course followed by professional mining classes in drilling and blasting, materials handling, rock mechanics, mine health and safety, mine ventilation, mine cost engineering, ore reserve analysis, operations analysis, mine planning, and minerals processing. Elective courses allow students to concentrate their studies in specific areas. These courses prepare graduates for entrance into the mining engineering profession, as well as provide a good background for more-specialized studies or advanced administrative positions
The academic programme includes not just a grounding in basic engineering sciences but also a fair amount of theoretical and practical training in the different aspects of mining engineering, metallurgy and geology. planning, design, construction, operation, & maintenance of mines, their safety, & excavating & transport of minerals.

QUALIFICATION
The professional qualification for a Mining Engineer is the degree of Bachelor of Engineering (BE), which requires four years of successful full time study. Post graduation and Ph.D are the other option.This includes not just grounding in basic engineering sciences, but also a fair amount of theoretical and practical training in the different aspect of mining engineering, metallurgy and geology.


SCOPE IN INDIA
Both private & public sectors of the mining industry offers a vide range of opportunities to mining engineers.
As technological and engineering field, mining engineering offer a tremendous opportunity for the person who wishes to become involved in the application of our natural mineral resources to the preservation and enhancement of man. To meet these need mining engineers require a broad understanding of basic sciences, engineering, and economic principles. General education, communications skills, and comprehension of social factors are also important, since engineers often assume managerial functions within the mining industry.


SCOPE ABROAD
As you all know or will soon find out, holding one of few mining jobs makes you part of a a very tight world. By working in mining you are part of an elite of very few professionals helping produce metal for the world. In the world of mining, you will always end up running into the same people at some point in time in your employment career. The cyclical nature of the industry and its jobs makes the exploration and mining industry a world of "who do you know" making it a very small world.
