Mining and material production has a direct impact on the economy, providing the building blocks for products and technologies that form the core of American (and global) life. Geological and Geophysical Engineering is a unique combination of earth sciences and engineering that has broad applications in the fields of mining engineering, civil engineering, petroleum engineering, and earth and environmental sciences. Geological and Geophysical engineering is at the forefront of some of the most important issues in our society today, including the design and safety of the “geo-infrastructure” (highway and rail slopes, dam, bridge and building foundations, tunnels, and other surface and underground excavations), and the safe extraction of energy resources including coal, natural gas, petroleum, geothermal and nuclear power.
The Master of Engineering in Mining, Geological and Geophysical Engineering will examine fundamental concepts supported by groundbreaking research in the field. You’ll gain an advanced understanding of core technical principles while also pursuing coursework in finance and management, legal issues, and other administrative concerns specific to the emphasis area that is chosen. Armed with this focused skill-set, you’ll be well-prepared to pursue mining and geological engineering roles and other enhanced opportunities in the field.
The program is comprised of an entirely flexible curriculum, allowing you to choose from a number of emphasis areas, including (but not limited to):

Optional Practical Training or OPT is a period during which students, who have completed their degrees in the USA, are permitted to work for one year on a student visa by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). OPT allows students to work for up to 3 years and develop real-world skills to survive in the competitive jobs market.
It is temporary employment for a period of 12-months that is directly related to the major area of study of an F-1 student. Eligible students have the option to apply for OPT employment authorization before completing their academic studies and/or after completing their academic studies.
A student can participate in three types of Optional Practical Training (OPT):
