Mining Geology

Today, issues of quality management of mineral raw materials, as well as engineering-geological and hydrogeological support, are key to the development of the entire mining industry. Difficult mining conditions and the decline in the quality of mineral raw materials require new technological solutions for the development of mineral deposits. The program is aimed at training specialists for international mining companies. Having a strategic partner allows you to provide high-quality practical training throughout the entire training period, including internships.
