Conclusions
This review represents an important part of the work being done by the
IMPC Commission on Education to establish how well available education
programs match industry needs.
There is a lot of variety in duration, content and focus of minerals
engineering undergraduate programs. This means that the ongoing
professional development needs will not be the same for all graduates.
