Department of Mining Engineering


-->
The Mining Engineering is one of the main Branches of Engineering situated amidst the century old Kolar Gold Mines.The Department is headed by Prof.Rama Nand Guptha. The Department has well established lab and has an underground Mine-Model, the only one of its kind. The department has a strong industry-institution interaction to enable exposure to the latest technology trends for students and teachers and to impart practical training. The Bharath Gold Mines Limited ( BGML ) and National Institue of Rock Mechanics ( NIRM ) a research institution extends facility for the training of students in various project works. Recent additions to the lab include a sophisticated Electronic Survey Station and a Electronic Precision Level.
  • Spacious Rooms with Proper Ventilation Systems.
  • Attached vegetarian mess facility.
  • Limited accommodation for visiting parents on campus.
  • Visiting Doctors for Routine Check-ups.
  • Good Medical facilities available in KGF.
