First level

The qualification holder will be able to:

  • demonstrate mastery of basic technical knowledge in the field of mining and geotechnology, supplemented by selected knowledge from the fields of science, engineering, management and ICT,
  • demonstrate understanding of technical topics, including their theoretical background, and the application of methods (e.g. in mining: the Velenje digging method; in geotechnology: the new Austrian method of building tunnels),
  • integrate scientific knowledge with knowledge from other engineering disciplines,
  • undertake autonomous work in applied projects in mining and geotechnology,
  • apply theoretical knowledge to the addressing and planning of developments while minimising harmful impacts on the environment and people,
  • pursue learning in their own professional field and adapt to related fields,
  • participate in development work and transfer research and development achievements into practice,
  • communicate with co-workers and experts from related disciplines, thus enabling active cooperation on joint work, including in the field of projects based on the integration of technical laws and experience within the field of geotechnology and mining.

Students' knowledge is assessed by means of practical exercises and seminar papers, and also via products, projects, performances, services, etc. and by examinations. Examination performance is graded as follows: 10 (excellent); 9 (very good: above-average knowledge but with some mistakes); 8 (very good: solid results); 7 (good); 6 (adequate: knowledge satisfies minimum criteria); 5–1 (inadequate). In order to pass an examination, a candidate must achieve a grade between adequate (6) and excellent (10).
