After the completion of 2nd

Semester and 4th

Semester end examination every student will

undergo ONE month of Practical Training in Underground Metal or Coal Mine and Surface

Mine (Mechanized) respectively in Karnataka or other places, where the permission is available.

COURSE OBJECTIVE

Industrial Training is one of the most essential components for a Diploma in Mining engineering.

The sole purpose of industrial training is to expose the students to “real life” situations. Different

aspect of mining such as geology, exploration, selection of method of working, selection of

machines for mining, environmental controls and measures, safety in mines and various statutory

provisions that can only be understood when the students are exposed to different mine

workings. Students will cover the training in different coal and metal mines both underground

and opencast in such a way that at the end of the completion of diploma programme, they are

conversant with different mining conditions. Industrial training also opens avenues of new

learning to the students and applies them during their project and industrial training

presentations.

🎯Task work

Every student after the completion of 2nd

Semester and 4th

Semester end examination will

undergo ONE month of Practical Training in Underground Metal or Coal Mine and Surface

Mine (Mechanized) respectively in Karnataka or other places where the permission is available,

at his own cost.

Normally a student is not permitted to withdraw from this practical training. In case of

unseen circumstances/valid reasons if he could not undergo the training as scheduled, on the

recommendation of the Department and approval by the competent authority the student may be

permitted to undergo practical training in any other vocations. The decision of the competent

authority is final.

The students are instructed to maintain field book to note down the relevant points

individually, signed by the training officer allotted by the mine and submit the same to in a

bound paged record to the Programme co-ordinator immediately after completion of training

along with the training certificate.

The information’s collected during vocational trainings may also be used to carry out the

student activities wherever required for the different courses.


Students are informed to record the schedule of training they have taken and they are

suppose to write the training report and submit to the mining deportment without fail.
