The symposium on “Mining  Engineering and Geo-Resources” will be held in the scope of the 5th Doctoral Congress  Engineering (DCE23) which will be hosted at FEUP, Porto, Portugal on the 15th and 16th of June 2023.

This Symposium is organized in collaboration with the Instituto Superior Técnico (IST), by PhD and Master Students from the following Programmes:

  • Doctoral Programme in Mining Engineering and Geo-Resources (PDEMGR/FEUP)
  • Doctoral Programme in Earth-Resources (DGEO/IST)
  • Doctoral Programme in Petroleum Engineering (DEPet/IST)
  • Master in Mining Engineering and Geo-Environment (M.EMG/FEUP)
  • Master in Mining and Geological Engineering (MEGM/IST)
  • Master in Energetic Resources (MERE/IST)

with the support of the Research Centre CERENA.

Symposium Committee is pleased to invite you to share ongoing work or results of PhD or Master Programmes.
