Complementary Studies

Refer to the Complementary Studies section of this calendar for details regarding the requirements for all Engineering programs. For the Mining Program, the Engineering Economics courses are APSC 221 Economic and Business Practice and MINE 330 Mineral Industry Economics. The Communications course is APSC 293 Engineering Communications 2. Included in the core Mining program is an additional 2.0 credits of Linkage in MINE 459 Risk and Reliability Analysis for Industrial Asset Management, Health & Safety. In addition to this core content, Mining students must take at least 6 additional credits of Complementary Studies, of which at least 3 credits must be from List A and the remaining 3 credits can be from List A or B.
