Program details

Overview

This research-based Master of Science (M.Sc.) programme in mining engineering prepares graduates as specialists for applied research and for the development or improvement of industrial processes. Areas of study include mining exploitation, rock mechanics, mine mechanization, mineral treatment, and extractive metallurgy. Students complete graduate coursework and an original research project under faculty supervision, culminating in a thesis; a research supervisor must be confirmed before applying, as the programme cannot admit candidates without a professor's agreement to supervise. Instruction is delivered mainly in French, with reading proficiency in English also required for success in the programme. The programme is pursued full-time, with individual courses occasionally offered at a distance or in hybrid format. The nominal full-time duration is two years. Admission is offered for the Fall, Winter, and Summer terms.
