The new graduate program will capitalize on the university’s deep expertise in field robotics and its niche in the geosciences and extractive industries.

It's not so much about make-believe but rather robots' ability to continually adapt to new scenarios without having to physically experience them first, the computer science assistant professor said.

“Long hours of training both on campus and in the Edgar Experimental Mine paid off for our Mines team," mechanical engineering freshman CJ Kaufman said.

The findings, published today in the journal Scientific Reports and led by Mines' Alexei Milkov, are the result of a detailed analysis of a large global dataset of the isotopic composition of methane produced from the shale formations.

Two Mines students were part of the team that developed the first-of-its-kind tangible programming experience for beginners.

Even a tiny shard of paint in orbit can do damage to a spacecraft. The Mines Capstone Design team will launch their suite of experiments into suborbital space in August 2020 as part of the RockSatX program.

Why did you choose to come to Mines? What have you enjoyed most about being here? I went through a long search for grad school, comparing many options at different universities. At the end, only one

The Society of Petroleum Engineers student competition is "like ‘Jeopardy!’ but for petroleum engineers," says team co-captain Niels Snow.

Electrical engineering student Paige Granie talks about how a Mines degree will enable her to achieve her dream of becoming a patent lawyer.

Morgan Bazilian, director of the Payne Institute of Public Policy, is a co-author of a new study in Energy Research & Social Science that seeks to answer that question.
