About program
A mining engineer applies engineering principles, technology, and scientific knowhow to the extraction and processing of natural resources, in order to create new materials that are essential to our everyday life. There are many places where a degree in Mining Engineering from the University of Arizona can be applied. UArizona Mining Engineers work with artificial intelligence to optimize mine production, develop more sustainable extraction and refining processes, utilize drones to monitor slope stability, and develop innovative methods of restoring mined land.
A BS in mining engineering from the University of Arizona is your ticket into a competitive, high-paying global industry and your chance to help ensure sustainable development of mineral resources.
Mining engineers work worldwide on all phases of mining. They are involved in mineral exploration and discovery, mine design, construction, production and operations, mineral extraction and processing, and land restoration.
