Visit Length: 30-minute tour – On Campus

Curious about Mining Engineering? Whether you’re already considering it or just exploring your options, we invite you to take your campus tour to the next level with an add-on tour of the Mining Engineering Department at the Colorado School of Mines.

Held every other Friday this fall, this 30-minute tour gives you a peek inside Brown Hall, home to the world’s No. 1 program in minerals and mining engineering.
