Mineral Industry Extraction and Engineering Technologies

The study programme will provide graduates with a broader professional profile, offering comprehensive and high-quality knowledge in the areas of mining processes and mining systems, technical systems and technological processes in the construction and operation of tunnels, as well as natural dynamic processes related to technical problems. Graduates are familiar with and able to apply scientific research methods that make it possible to describe the rock mass, the geotechnical stability of underground spaces, the course of technological processes and systems in mining and raw material extraction, as well as environmental processes and their influence by mining activities. Within the doctoral study programme, graduates in the individual form of study are profiled for scientific research work applicable in the field of technical and engineering use of the underground. A doctoral graduate masters the methods and methodological procedures used in theoretical and applied research focused on investigating interactive relationships in the rock environment, in particular the study of interactions such as “disintegration tool – rock,” “rock – supporting technical element,” “rock – fragmented technological material,” “free rock space – backfill material,” and “rock – open space.” Observation, technical analysis, and evaluation of technological processes within these interactions constitute the main subject of the graduate’s research and scientific inquiry.
