<div><p>The Graduate Diploma in Mining was created with the working engineer in mind. Intended as continuing education for scientists and engineers already involved with the mining industry, it is expected to appeal particularly to civil, mechanical, electrical, chemical and construction engineers, geologists, metallurgists, surveyors and other professionals with an interest in mining practice. This course will build upon the knowledge already gained from invaluable industry experience.</p><p>With a range of study modes available, from part time online learning to full time on campus study, this course can be tailored to suit your needs.</p><p>The course is designed for full-time study over two years or part-time study over a four year period either via online learning*or via block mode in the form of several full-time periods on campus of one week each, followed by assignments and practical work in the student's place of employment.</p><p>Persons not wishing, or not able to, finish the course in minimum time may attend full or half sessions once or twice per year until the required number of courses have been completed.</p><p>*Domestic students only, international students are required to study full-time at the Mt Helen Campus.</p></div>

<div><strong>Hear from our students</strong><div> <div><p>"I chose to study at Federation University because of the large practical component in the course. The industry exposure I gained through placement and projects was invaluable, with the wide range of leadership and volunteering opportunities really allowing me to find my passion. The staff at Federation not only teach the required knowledge but they also go above and beyond to help every student gain fulfilling work experience. These combined helped me land my dream job as a mining engineer at Rio Tinto."</p></div>                                 <div>Ryan Marshall</div>                                 <div>Bachelor of Engineering (Mining)</div>                             </div></div>
