PSO 1: Plan, analyse, and design Mining projects and its components in various areas of Mining Engineering like Mine designing, Geotechnical Engineering, Environmental Engineering, and Transportation Engineering.

PSO 2: Execute the construction and development of mines, extraction of minerals other components of mining projects in Mining Engineering including its layout, management, and quality control.

PSO 3: Implement the provisions made by Directorate General of Mines Safety, Indian Bureau of mines, Ministry of labour and employment other relevant codes/ specifications/ guidelines and applicable laws including labour laws and environmental laws.

There is a lot of job scope and career prospects while working in mines, provided one has passed first class mine manager’s certificate. For this, graduate mining engineers need one year mine working experience and 2nd class manager’s certificate. Mining Engineers are placed in grade E2 after one year of training, graduate mining engineers can be employed by private mine owner such as TATA, RUNGTA, USHA MARTIN, SAINIK MINING etc. Mining Engineers are also being employed by Explosive manufacturer such as ICI, IDL, IEL, Nav Bharat Explosive etc . Graduate mining engineers are also being employed by equipment manufacturers like HEC, BHEL, L & T etc . Engineers who have inclination towards research can join CSIR-CIMFR (Dhanbad) or a technical Institute like IIT-ISM. Graduate mining engineers can also join DGMS & IBM through UPSC and also State service as AMO and in Jharkhand State mineral development Corporation.

B.Tech in Mining Engineering (B. Tech Degree) is much more extensive and in-depth as compared to a diploma in any particular discipline of engineering. B. Tech in Mining Engineering stream is undoubtedly the most suitable and fertile degree for forging ahead in the relevant industry in India or any country abroad. Bachelor in Mining Engineering is a very interesting discipline of engineering that teaches a general engineering program followed by a core course in blasting and drilling, rock mechanics, materials handling, mine ventilation, mine health and safety, mine cost engineering, operations analysis, ore reserve analysis, mine planning and minerals processing, surveying, etc. The role of a mining engineer begins with the processing of mineral commodities, the discovery of mineral resources, controlling mining operations, designing and construction of mines, and transportation of minerals. Candidates have various career opportunities related to a career in mining from operations engineer, mine designer, mine manager, consulting engineer, health and safety manager, sales engineer, etc. Candidates may also find job offers both in private and public-sector petroleum mining companies; oil companies; mining research organizations; mining finance houses; mineral production companies and other related organizations. The candidates may also have opportunities in R&D activities as well as management, consultation, and sales. The duration, of the course, is 4 years and 3 years for Lateral Entry.
