Técnico and China University of Mining and Technology, Beijing (CUMBT) has just signed a double degree agreement for an International Master on Mining Engineering.

The International Master on Mining Engineering aims at providing the modern tools and methodologies to face the new challenges of the mining engineering in the next decades: automation, industrial internet of things and data science – machine learning, artificial intelligence – applied in all mining chain since the geophysical exploration up to the production, geostatistics for resources and reserves uncertainty and risk evaluation, optimization methods for real time mining.

Under this double degree the students will spend one year at Técnico and another year in CUMTB. The first edition of the International Master on Mining Engineering will start in 2019/2020 and the application period will be during the first semester of 2019.
