Master in Mining and engineering geology

The tuition fee is 4,000 EUR per year.

Mining and Engineering Geology, with a specialization in Mining Engineering, is a master's program at Wrocław University of Science and Technology taught in English over three semesters, with yearly tuition of 4,000 EUR. Graduates gain in-depth knowledge of problems within basic sciences and within the main field of study and specialization subjects, along with the ability to manage and supervise teams, handle high-risk situations and decisions, and apply knowledge of law and economics competently. Graduates are prepared to design technological processes, carry out research work, and work creatively within the mining and geology field. The first semester covers theory and practice in geomechanics, computer-aided geological modelling and geostatistics, project management, appraisal and risk evaluation, engineering geophysics, integrated analysis of deformations in geomechanical engineering, occupational health and safety, and excavation design in open pit mining. The second semester covers machinery systems, tunnel and underground excavation design, computer-aided mine design, ventilation and mine fires, issues in nuclear physics, AutoCAD, foreign languages, and a free elective. The third semester covers mineral processing systems, environmental management, process automation, operations research, a further free elective, and the diploma seminar and master's thesis. Graduates are prepared to work for enterprises, engineering supervision bodies, state administration, design offices, and research units where specialized knowledge of mining, geology, and geoengineering is required, applying the technical and managerial training built across the three-semester curriculum.
