Description

The graduates are prepared to work in underground and open pit mines of coal, metal ores, salt and other minerals and in other mining plants dealing with the mining of mineral raw materials and in the companies of underground construction. They study modern subjects within mining technology, mechanization, geomechanics, blasting techniques, natural threats (rock bursting, roof falls, underground fire prevention, methane control, etc.) and geological background.

Thanks to the access to the newest software and fast computers they can simulate mining conditions with numerical modeling. Students gain full qualifications entitling them to hold top management positions in a mine. They can be also employed in research and scientific centers for mining industry.

They are also provided with a wide range of theoretical and practical knowledge in mining economics, organization and management in the mining industry. They can use modern computer techniques. During the study course we ensure practical trainings for the students in Polish very modern mines.

AGH University of Science and Technology's Mission Statement

AGH-UST, established on 20th October 1919, until 1949 known as the Academy of Mining, founded after long-lasting endeavours which had started in 1782, the year when the Ore Commission was established, has been continuing the traditions of the Academy of Mining in Kielce (1816-1827), inaugurated by StanisBaw Staszic. The University, being a technical school, serves the science and industry through educating students, the development of academic staff, as well as research and development. The University cherishes its traditions and educates its students to be honest and responsible people both at work, and as members of the society, according to its motto: "Labore creata, labori et scientiae servio" (Created in labour, I serve labour and science.)
