“Studying in the Mining Engineering program at UPC is one of the best decisions I have made, since it gives us direct contact with the profession since the first terms. Currently, I have had the opportunity to visit three mining units during the academic term, for a course. Additionally, faculty are renowned professionals in the sector and give us updated information.”

“Since I started studying at UPC, I realized the university offers students many opportunities and support. For students to have a good foundation in mining, they need to have experienced it in the flesh, that is why we have the opportunity to visit mines, from which we obtain a lot of information and experience regarding mining. That, added to the good teaching quality and constant support, trains us as prepared professionals.”
