U. Arizona collaborates with UBC and EduMine on Mining Certificate Program

The Department of Mining and Geological Engineering at the University of Arizona is collaborating with the Norman B. Keevil Institute of Mining Engineering at the University of British Columbia and EduMine on the Certificate in Mining Studies Program. This innovative program is based on unique courses designed to meet the lifelong learning needs of the mining community. The program combines the convenience of online learning with the mentoring and peer-review benefits of intensive short courses.

This collaboration will significantly expand the availability of online courses and short courses for certificate students. As part of this collaboration, University of Arizona faculty and students have unrestricted access to EduMine’s large library of courses for teaching, learning and research purposes.

In the words of Mary Poulton, head of department at U Arizona … “my Dean is very excited about our participation … it will be a good proof of concept on distance education collaboration”.
