Best Mining Engineering Master’s Degree Colleges in the Southeast Region

Unfortunately, there were no schools in the Southeast Region that made our Best Mining Engineering Master's Degree Schools in the Southeast Region list. You may want to check out our national ranking in the field instead.

Early-Career Earnings

One measure we use to determine the quality of a school is to look at the average salary of master's graduates during the early years of their career. That is, everyone wants their master's degree to be worth something, and salaries are one measure of determining that.

Other Factors We Consider

The metrics below are just some of the other metrics that we use to determine our rankings.

• Major Focus - How much a school focuses on mining engineering students vs. other majors.
• Major Demand - The number of mining engineering students who choose to seek a master's degree at the school.
• Educational Resources - How many resources are allocated to students. These resources may include educational expenditures per student, number of students per instructor, and graduation rate among other things.
• Student Debt - How much debt mining engineering students go into to obtain their master's degree and how well they are able to pay back that debt.
• Accreditation - Whether a school is regionally accredited and/or accredited by a recognized mining engineering related body.

Our full ranking methodology documents in more detail how we consider these factors to identify the best colleges for mining engineering students working on their master's degree.

Insufficient Data for the Southeast Region

Due to lacking data, we could not provide you with the mining engineering quality ranking. This is usually due to there not being enough schools in the Southeast Region that both offer mining engineering and provided enough information for us to do a sufficient analysis.
