Mining Engineering programsinclude elements from a number <strong>of</strong> other disciplinessuch as geology, metallurgy, commerce, economicsand management.Program StructureA typical program sequence is shown below:Year 1Mathematics, Physics, Engineering Computing,Engineering Design, Electives including: (EngineeringMechanics), Mineral Resources Engineering,Fundamentals <strong>of</strong> Geology, Engineering Materials andChemistryYear 2Engineering Mathematics, Mining ProjectDevelopment, Fluids and <strong>The</strong>rmodynamics,Numerical Methods and Statistics, StructuralMechanics, Minerals and Processing, Mining Services,General Education coursesYear 3Resource Estimation and Evaluation, MiningGeomechanics, Mining Systems, Socio-EnvironmentalAspects <strong>of</strong> Mining, Mine Planning, Mine Ventilation,Rock Breakage, General Education courses, and one<strong>of</strong> the following: Minerals and Processing, AdvancedMinerals Processing, Surface Mining Systems,Underground Mining SystemsYear 4Hardrock Feasibility Project, Coal FeasibilityProject, Mine Geotechnical Engineering, MiningResearch Project 1, Mining Research Project 2, MineManagement, General Education courses, and one<strong>of</strong> the following: Mining Systems, UndergroundMining Systems, Advanced GeotechnicalEngineering, Advanced Mine Ventilation, MiningAsset Management and Services, Mining in a GlobalEnvironment, Advanced Minerals ProcessingCareer OpportunitiesMany mining engineers spend between one andthree years gaining work experience at mine sitesand may then elect to gain their statutory minemanager’s qualifications. Opportunities for miningengineers exist in a range <strong>of</strong> areas, includingmine production and management, corporatemanagement, financial analysis and merchantbanking, computer s<strong>of</strong>tware development andautomation, consulting, and government.Pr<strong>of</strong>essional RecognitionThis degree is accredited by Engineers Australia, theAustralasian Institute <strong>of</strong> Mining and Metallurgy andthe corresponding pr<strong>of</strong>essional bodies in the UnitedStates, the United Kingdom and other countries.<strong>The</strong> degree is also accredited for Statutory MineManagers Certificates, both coal and metalliferous,throughout Australia and internationally.Combined ProgramsBE (Mining Engineering)/Bachelor <strong>of</strong> ArtsProgram code 3144FacultyEngineeringMin. years 5 yearsUOC (per year/total) 48/240Semester 2 entry NoEst. first year tuition A$27,960Est. fee to complete A$151,820Assumed Knowledge Maths, Physics and ChemistryOnline Handbook www.handbook.unsw.edu.au/<strong>undergraduate</strong>/programs/2010/3144.htmlWebsitewww.mining.unsw.edu.auBE (Mining Engineering)/Bachelor <strong>of</strong> CommerceProgram code 3715FacultyEngineeringMin. years 5.5 yearsUOC (per year/total) 48/264Semester 2 entry Yes*Est. first year tuition A$27,960Est. fee to complete A$180,820Assumed Knowledge Maths, Physics and ChemistryOnline Handbook www.handbook.unsw.edu.au/<strong>undergraduate</strong>/programs/2010/3715.htmlWebsitewww.mining.unsw.edu.auBE (Mining Engineering)/Bachelor <strong>of</strong> ScienceProgram code 3142FacultyEngineeringMin. years 5 yearsUOC (per year/total) 48/240Semester 2 entry NoEst. first year tuition A$27,960Est. fee to complete A$163,280Assumed Knowledge Maths, Physics and ChemistryOnline Handbook www.handbook.unsw.edu.au/<strong>undergraduate</strong>/programs/2010/3142.htmlWebsitewww.mining.unsw.edu.auSEE ALSOBachelor <strong>of</strong> Engineering (Civil Engineering)/Bachelor <strong>of</strong> Engineering (Mining Engineering)page 46* Students starting an Engineering program in Semester 2may be required to complete summer semesters.
