Le d茅partement de g茅nie des mines a 茅t茅 cr茅茅 en 1870, apr猫s que John William Dawson, Principal de 不良研究所 et g茅ologue r茅put茅, ait fait campagne vigoureusement pour le soutien du gouvernement afin d'茅tablir une 茅cole des mines 脿 l'Universit茅 不良研究所 pour satisfaire la demande locale de leadership pour le secteur en croissance des min茅raux du Canada.听En 1873, le premier ing茅nieur des mines au Canada est dipl么m茅 de l'Universit茅 不良研究所.听Le d茅partement de g茅nie des mines jouit d'une r茅putation internationale gr芒ce au solide leadership et aux contributions exceptionnelles d'un grand nombre de son personnel enseignant 茅minent comme B. J. Harrington, William Arthur Carlyle, John E Hardman, John B. Porter, Robert K. Morrison, George McBride, Frank T. White et d'autres.听En 1973, le d茅partement de g茅nie des mines et de g茅ophysique a 茅t茅 fusionn茅 avec le d茅partement de g茅nie m茅tallurgique et le d茅partement a 茅t茅 renomm茅 听g茅nie minier et m茅tallurgique.听Le d茅partement a 茅t茅 par la suite renomm茅 g茅nie des mines et des mat茅riaux en 2005.听Le programme bilingue et minier de Coop a 茅t茅 cr茅茅 en 1988, en collaboration avec l'Ecole Polytechnique.听
En 2013, une version anglophone du programme Coop a 茅t茅 cr茅茅e pour les personnes hors de la province et du Canada.听Le programme de g茅nie des mines est connu pour son excellence en recherche, mais aussi pour la qualit茅 de ses dipl么m茅s, dont beaucoup occupent des postes cl茅s dans l'industrie mini猫re.听Un large 茅ventail d'activit茅s de recherche est en cours dans des domaines comme la m茅canique des roches, l鈥櫭ヽonomie mini猫re, la ventilation, l鈥櫭﹏ergie et la planification strat茅gique de la mine.
The undergraduate degree in Mining Engineering provides students with the skills and experience necessary to work in mining, as well as in related fields such as energy, construction, manufacturing, and finance and mining investment. We offer a Bilingual Stream in collaboration with Ecole Polytechnique, as well as an English Stream for out-of-province and international students. The co-op program offers the opportunity to gain work experience while studying through three, paid work terms. Undergraduate students also have the option to complete the program without co-op work terms.
