Five aspects in improvement of mining
engineering education
McDivitt (2002)

The role of industry,

The role of mining associations,

The Interface with the Schools,

Actions to be taken within universities and between universities,

Learning from experience in other fields.

What have been done so far in Indonesia especially ITB?

Undergraduate Study Program of Mining Engineering | ITB

The Role of Industry
Industry is the keyIndustry Advisory Teams
ITB : Total 12 members where 11 members are from mining industries.

Industry Scholarships
ITB : $10 million for 11,000 students from total 15.000 students.

Endowed Faculty Posts, ITB2020 plan to Rp.1 T or $70 million.

Voluntary support of education (2015)“Alumni giving at Harvard University topped more than $650 million
during the 2015 fiscal year. Former students of Princeton Universitydonating nearly $400 million in that same year. “Undergraduate Study Program of Mining Engineering | ITB

The Role of Industry


Visiting Lecturer
ITB : once per two weeks industry experts teach courses as guest lecturer.

Student Internship

ITB : Students spend 1 to 2-month periods at industry, where they workat a regular job and are not paid.

The Role of Mining Associations


The Mining Associations should serve as a valuable link between
the components of the industry, bringing together in theirmemberships representatives of government, industry,universities, and to an increasing extent the other “communities ofinterest.”

Remains challenge for Indonesia,

Association of Indonesian Mining Professionals : annual meetingof mining engineering study program, PERHAPI goes to campus.

Indonesian Coal Mining Association : hybrid teaching forsecondary mining school, giving Scholarship.

Undergraduate Study Program of Mining Engineering | ITB

Actions Within and Between Universities

ITB : Mining engineering students may also take a minor in Metallurgy,Geophysics or Petroleum.

Hybrid teaching,

ITB & UMI (all subjects)

ITB & Syiah Kuala University (few subjects)

Sharing laboratory,
Trisakti University (Rock mechanics, Mine ventilation, Mineral processing)ITSB (Rock mechanics)UIN (Geostatistic, Hydrogeology, Rock mechanics, Mine ventilation,Mineral processing, Mineralogy & Crystallography, Geotechnics)

AGP (Mineralogy & Crystallography)

Putting courses online (non conventional energy resources).

Undergraduate Study Program of Mining Engineering | ITBSummary

The mining sector remains promising for the next five years.
Production would not significantly increase.

Huge number of mining graduates.

High student-to-staff ratio.

Partnership with industry is critical.
