The Ph.D. program usually revolves around the research currently being conducted by the department's faculty members. Faculty members who are conducting research provide funding for qualified applicants to work on their research projects. If you qualify to receive funding through a faculty member, there is a university program that will pay for your tuition cost as well as include a stipend that helps with living expenses.
To be able to apply for the program you need to have a master’s degree in Mining Engineering or a related field. We don’t accept applications from students who only posess a bachelor's degree unless the applicant can demonstrate considerable industry experience that would make up for the lack of a completed master's degree.
If you are interested in the Ph.D. program, we recommend your first step be to visit the department's faculty page to familiarize yourself with the type of research being conducted and decide whether it is of interest to you.
