DR ANDY WETHERELT, MINING ENGINEERING PROGRAMME LEADER

Why study MiningEngineering at theUniversity of Exeter? e Mining Engineering degree is taught bythe University’s Camborne School of Mines(CSM), which has over 100 years’ experiencein training mining engineers and anexcellent international reputation. Manyextractive industry operations around theworld will have a CSM mining engineersomewhere within their staff.

CSM is one of the best equippeddepartments of its kind in Europe. Our staff are actively involved in research andyou will benefit from their cutting-edgeknowledge and our research facilities. We arealso the only university in the UK to have itsown test mine for teaching and research.

Our degree programme is truly multi-disciplinary, including elements of civil and mechanical engineering, geology,metallurgy, economics, environmentalmanagement, and health and safety. It’s alsohighly vocational, so in addition to lecture-based study, the programme includes fieldtrips, tours, a summer industrial placementand practical classes in surveying and in ourtest mine. You will generally spend yoursecond year summer vacation gaining workexperience anywhere from Australia to theUK and will often be paid for doing so.

e Mining Engineering degree programmeis professionally accredited by the Instituteof Materials, Minerals and Mining (IOM3),providing the opportunity for you to worktowards Chartered Engineer status after you graduate.

What is Mining Engineering?e demand for minerals will continue to grow as the world’s population doubles over the next 40 years. Mineraldevelopment and production must bemanaged in a responsible manner if we are to obtain these minerals without great damage to our environment. Highlytrained engineers and scientists areneeded by the minerals industry now

and in the future. Mining applies many different branches of science andengineering to understand how mineralscan be extracted from the earth.

Mining engineers are primarily responsiblefor the safe and economic production ofthe Earth’s minerals. ey work with metalores, diamonds, coal, oil and industrialminerals such as clays, granites andlimestone. Many mines involve deepunderground excavations with hightemperatures and very large stresses in

the rock. Others involve surface workingin quarries, open pits and strip mines.

Mining engineers often manage teams ofengineers and others from many differentdisciplines. Because of this, miningengineering degrees are very wide rangingand ideal for careers in engineeringmanagement.

Mining engineers must be able tounderstand the nature of the rocks withwhich they work. ey apply soundengineering principles to design safe and economic methods of extraction.A knowledge of geology, engineering, rock mechanics, economics, surveying and management is necessary for anyoneinvolved in the design and management of mines.

Recycling and reclamation are areas whichare becoming increasingly importantworld-wide. Improvements in extractiontechnology now allow the treatment ofsecondary sources, such as the waste frompreviously mined deposits, industrial anddomestic waste and contaminated land. In many cases it is possible to developprocesses which allow a range ofmaterials, including metals, plastics andglass, to be recovered from waste streamsoffering the potential for increasedrecycling.

Degree programmesHow your degree is structuredOur programme is modular and youprogress through your degree by studyingmodules and accumulating credits as yousuccessfully complete them; you have tocomplete 120 credits per year in order toprogress through the programme. Creditvalues are proportional to the study timeallocated to a module; for example, a 15-credit module will comprise roughly 150 hours of study, both taught and private study.

BEng Mining Engineering

Year 1: e first year of the programme is mainly devoted to general engineeringprinciples together with geology andsurveying and an introduction to miningand minerals engineering. You will attend aone-week induction course at our test mineduring the Easter vacation and learn to usemining equipment and explosives safely. At the end of the first year a three-weeksurface surveying field course is held oncampus.

Year 2: In year two more emphasis is placedon mining subjects and management whilstthe engineering and geology topics from the first year are further developed. In thesummer vacation between the second and

third years you will work in the extractiveindustry for at least eight weeks. Moststudents work overseas during this period.Although the onus is on you to find aplacement, the Department can help byproviding contact details and suggestingcompanies which suit your interests.Companies with close ties to theDepartment also provide placements for anumber of students. Most students receive a wage during their placement and somecompanies provide other support such asaccommodation and travel allowances.

Following the work placement and prior to the beginning of Year 3, we undertake a week long industrial tour, normallyoverseas (see over the page).

Year 3: In the third year all subjects arevery closely connected with mining. Minedesign, geotechnical engineering, mininggeology and minerals management aredeveloped further. You will also carry out a mining feasibility study where you willwork in small groups to design and cost amining project.

roughout the third year you will work onan individual research project in your area ofinterest, under the supervision of a memberof academic staff. Previous research projectshave included:

• Blast vibration analysis• Gyrotheodolite surveys• Orebody modelling• Computer modelling of rock slope failure• Health and safety in mines and quarries• Mine and tunnel design• Quarry product evaluation

Our teaching is carried out through anumber of methods including lectures,tutorials, laboratory work, field courses,feasibility studies and projects. On averageyou will spend 20 hours per week in taughtactivities at the University and will beexpected to carry out a further 20 hours perweek in independent study.

During your degree you will undertakeblasting trials, ventilation surveys, surfaceand underground surveying exercises, andoperation of mining equipment. e CSMunderground test mine works as a purpose-built testing facility where both teachingand research can be conducted in anauthentic setting.

Other facilities include a sensor-basedmaterials sorting and characterisationfacility, mineral processing laboratory and ageomechanics rock and soil testing facility.You will have access to the research facilitiesin the Department throughout your degree.

Learning and teaching is also supported byonline and digital resources and campus-wide facilities including the library andlearning support services. All students havea personal tutor throughout their studieswho acts as a mentor and is available foradvice and support.

You do not have to travel to Exeter for anyof your modules – they are all taught at theCornwall Campus.

Research-led teachingWe believe every student benefits frombeing part of a research-led culture andbeing taught by experts – you will discussthe very latest ideas in seminars andtutorials and become actively involved inresearch yourself.

Across all our undergraduate programmes,teaching is strongly informed by theresearch expertise of academic staff, whoare internationally-recognised experts in their field.

CSM is recognised worldwide as a centre forresearch related to the formation, discovery,extraction and utilisation of the Earth’snatural resources, and subsequentremediation. e applied nature of much of the research is indicated by significantinternational industrial collaboration.Research within the School is coordinatedby three multidisciplinary groups. esedraw upon the Department’s researchexpertise in Mining and MineralsEngineering, Geology and RenewableEnergy.

In Mining and Minerals Engineering wehave very active research interests in blastvibration analysis, ore sorting, health andsafety management, geotechnical analysis of slopes and excavations and resourcemodelling.

Facilitiese facilities on campus were built in 2004and offer state-of-the-art equipment forteaching and research.

Laboratory classes, using our extensiveteaching equipment enables students tofully appreciate the theoretical elements of the course via practical examples.

CSM research facilities include world-classanalytical geochemical and mineral analysislaboratories complete with QEMSCAN®, asophisticated scanning electron microscope-based mineralogical assessment systemwhich is a unique facility amongst UKuniversities. In addition, our analytical

suite comprises an electron microprobe, low vacuum scanning electron microscope, X-ray diffraction, X-ray fluorescence, atomicabsorption spectroscopy and high qualitymicroscope and imaging facilities. Otherareas include a sensor based materialssorting and characterisation facility, mineralprocessing laboratory and a geomechanicsrock and soil testing facility. You will haveaccess to the research facilities in theDepartment throughout your degree,especially during project work.

Field work, tours and equipment An industrial tour takes place during mid-September preceding the final year. Inprevious years visits have been arranged tothe north of England, Ireland, Scandinaviaand southern Portugal. Visits are made to mine sites both on the surface andunderground, along with mill visits and visits to waste treatment/recycling plants. ese visits develop additionallearning skills and awareness of theminerals/extraction industry.

e Department subsidises the cost of fieldtrips, but you will be expected to make acontribution to the cost of residential fieldcourses. As a guide, in 2009 this amountedto £450 across all three years of theprogramme. Some travel scholarships are available.

You will also need some items of protectiveclothing such as a hard hat and steel toe-capped boots – typically this costsaround £100. Full details of the necessaryequipment will be sent to you before theprogramme begins.

When I started my degree at CSM I knew very little about mining. I quickly learnt that I had chosen adegree with brilliant travel,

employment and careerprospects. This was evident from a multitude of

visits and presentations from mining companies.

By the end of my first year I had already travelled

to the USA as part of the International Mining

Games Team and completed an underground mine

induction course at the University’s test mine. The

second year saw another visit to the USA with the

Mining Games Team before a three month work

placement in Western Australia with the gold

mining company Goldfields. On completing my

degree I found employment with Anglo American

at their Irish lead-zinc operation as a graduate

Since graduating with a degree in Mining Engineering two yearsago, I have moved out to WesternAustralia to experience the mining boom. I currently work for HWEMining, a contracting companywith a variety of mining operations.Studying at CSM has given me not only the technical

skills involved in Mining Engineering, but the all important

inter-personal and project management skills required to

actually make a mine site operate successfully. The degree

and environment prepared me for the challenges in the

workplace and the responsibilities of a mining engineer.

This was especially useful when, after a year in industry,

I took on the role of acting Senior Engineer at an iron-ore

mine in the Pilbara. The company recently awarded me the HWE Graduate of

the Year award for how I approach the different aspects

of mining, a direct result of my degree training and the

excellent staff at CSM.Mining Engineering is such a diverse area and I would

highly recommend it. Be you a hands-on person who wants

to get dirty underground or someone who enjoys the thrills

of optimising projects, I think the mining industry has a little

something for everyone. My days spent at CSM were such fun and I now have the

career and lifestyle I always dreamt about!HOLLY MOULDING, RECENT MINING ENGINEERING GRADUATE
