Learning Outcomes

This curricular unit is complementary of Project Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering I course. It is a curricular unit integrating the knowledge and skills developed along the course in different curricular units and it is intendent the students have a global perspective of a significant part of the course in order to let them be able to carry out a project of an open pit operation covering all aspects of the same, since the characterization of the rock and the rock mass, through extraction , transport, processing, environmental impact study and landscape recovery and health and safety plan . Each of the modules presents a set of objectives (generals and specifics) to be achieved and an appropriated plan of work.
