Overview
Mineral exploration, mining and environmental services are some of the most important sectors of the BC economy. The need for mineral products is increasing as we transition to a low-carbon economy and the sound environmental management of mining and other development activities such as roads, forestry and right of ways is critical to the sustainable development of BC’s economy. This program will prepare graduates for field assistant positions in mineral exploration, mining and environmental services and provide a step toward a career in natural resources and environmental management.
