What is the role of a mining engineer in Namibia?

Mining Engineers are tasked with evaluating, planning, and overseeing the construction of mines, specifying the processes and labour requirements. They also decide on and oversee the equipment that will extract minerals & ores from the earth.

Is mining engineering hard in Namibia?

There are mostly theoretical courses and I think they are really easy. There are few practical courses which are also easier than others. So in my opinion it is easier to get a mining engineering degree rather than a mining geologist or mining engineer. But with jobs, the situation is reversed — as a mine engineering job requires a lot more practical coursework and field experience.
