Mining Engineering
BIT Sindri’s Mining Technology Division was established by the Government of Bihar in 1975 to oversee the vast and diverse mineral reserves of Bihar (now Jharkhand). As a corollary of the nationalization of the mineral industry, in the 1970s there was also an urgent need to meet the need for large numbers of trained and qualified mining engineers. The department began by initially enrolling his 25 students in a four-year course, then expanded to 49 students per year by his AICTE in New Delhi. Since its establishment, the department has actively contributed with well-trained and effective products and experienced teachers in the field of coal and non-coal mining in management, planning, and research and development. The Department has the unique geographical advantage of being located between the main mining companies of the country as well as famous national and international research agencies and organizations such as BCCL, CCL, ECL, CMPDIL, CIMFR, IIT (ISM), TATA STEEL Ltd., SAIL, NML, etc. The Faculty is honored to enjoy the presence of such large and well-known institutions through the regular interaction of industry experts with students as well as faculty. The Faculty of Mining Engineering has, over its 44 years of existence, developed its own curriculum and extensive laboratory facilities that are relevant to the current requirements of the mining and related industries in the country and in the current context as per the global scene. The Faculty has laboratories with modern facilities, viz., Rock mechanics, Mining ventilation, Mine environmental engineering, Mining systems, Mining machinery, Mine surveying as well as Mine geology. Constantly striving to improve every aspect of the school, extracurricular and extracurricular activities to maintain its position among the top leagues in the country.
