Online Mining Engineering Degrees and Programs

Mining engineering covers the exploration, design, operation and reclamation of surface and underground mines, mineral processing, mine safety and ventilation.

Rule: Included when the program's official title names mining engineering, or when a broad engineering degree has a formally named mining engineering concentration (labelled as a concentration). Online coursework is required; Engineering Technology degrees are listed separately. This page updates from the directory's verified facts.

Attendance and labs

Online mining engineering study is mostly graduate-level and aimed at working engineers.

Accreditation and licensure

Every school listed holds institutional accreditation from a recognized agency. ABET accredits programs, mostly bachelor's degrees; graduate programs are rarely ABET-accredited and that is not a mark against them. Professional Engineer licensure is decided by each state board. Licensure and online degrees

Admissions: what these programs publish

  • Prior degree requirements — usually a bachelor's in engineering or a closely related field for graduate programs.
  • Minimum GPA, as published on the program or graduate school page.
  • GRE policy, references, statement and English-language requirements are shown per program; unpublished items stay “not verified”.
