Graduate Research Assistantships are available from time to time in Mineral Resource Engineering from individual faculty members for highly qualified students.

The undergraduate mining engineering degree is fully accredited by the Canadian Engineering Accreditation Board (CEAB) which means that graduates will be able to register as Professional Engineers once they have met post-graduation work experience and professional examination requirements. The core degree program covers the basic science and mathematics common to all engineering degrees and discipline-specific material.

List of classes offered and descriptions.

Mineral Resource Engineering concentrates on the technical, environmental and economic aspects of the extraction and processing of the earth's mineral resources. It has a strong industrial and research interest in underground and surface mining for coal, oil shales, metals, gold and industrial minerals, and in mineral processing. Studies in reservoir engineering, offshore drilling and production of oil and gas complement the Mineral Resource Engineering Program.

The Mineral Resource Engineering Program, formerly (Mining Engineering) was one of the four programs of the Nova Scotia Technical College (NSTC), founded in 1907. In 1978 the college became the Technical University of Nova Scotia (TUNS), which merged with Dalhousie University in 1997. Mineral Resource Engineering is now an program within the Faculty of Engineering at Dalhousie University.
