Development of Mineral Processing Engineering Education in WUST

Mineral processing which plays a key role in steel industry, is giving more and more attention and mineral processing engineering education has been given high priority in China. Lack of mineral resource and pollution has baffled the economy development of China. Taking the personnel training of metallurgy mineral resources processing and utilization as a background, the development of mineral processing engineering education in Wuhan University of Science and Technology (WUST) is introduced in this paper. The faculty group, laboratory and scientific research conditions of the discipline are presented. The personnel training scheme of the subject, the courses system, student criterion are also discussed, and how to cultivate excellent graduates in mineral processing engineering field to meet the demand of high education internationalization are discussed.
