皇后区矿业部的罗伯特·M·布坎（Robert M. Buchan）已经为全球采矿业领导者们做了125年的培训。今天，它不仅是加拿大最大的采矿部门，而且是世界上最大的矿业部门之一。实际上，Queen的采矿工程师约占加拿大大学毕业的所有加拿大采矿和矿物加工工程师的33％。随着技术的发展和全球经济的变化，我们的学生和研究人员在定义采矿的最新技术方面发挥着关键作用。通过与行业合作伙伴的密切合作，我们的教职员工致力于使采矿作业更安全，更高效，更具生产力，对自然环境的影响更小，更具成本效益。采矿工程师需要了解与采矿运
Aside from plants, all of the raw materials used by human society come from minerals extracted from the earth. This program prepares you for careers in the minerals industry and related environmental and technological fields. Traditionally, mining has been one of the broadest engineering fields. A mining engineer is required to be familiar with all of aspects of work involved in the operation of a mining project from the initial discovery stage to the marketing of a final product. For this reason, mining students receive some basic training in each of the major engineering fields. <br><br>As a Mining Engineering student, you will study a broad range of disciplines involved in locating, extracting, refining, and disposing of mineral and metal products and by-products. The program teaches students how these processes can be carried out efficiently and competitively, with a focus on sustainability and the environment.
