Ranked one of America’s 100 Best College Buys for eight consecutive years, we offer more than 30 outstanding, affordable degree programs at the baccalaureate, master’s, and doctoral levels through two interdisciplinary colleges and 16 departments.

Here—in small, interactive classes and within state-of-the-art facilities and laboratories—you’ll discover more than 2,300 students eagerly collaborating with more than 100 award-winning faculty on engineering and scientific issues of critical importance to South Dakota, the nation, and the world.

A community engaged in inventing tomorrow.

In addition to preparing undergraduate and graduate students for successful careers as scientists, engineers, and leaders, the School of Mines is also a regional powerhouse of award-winning research and development studies, attracting more than $12 million in research funding every year. Such initiatives—powered by the multifaceted skills and talents of our undergraduate and graduate students and accomplished faculty—allow us to continue our proud, century-old tradition of providing leadership within academia, industry, and government, both locally and nationally.
