Why Mines?
Graduate programs at South Dakota Mines reflect our commitment to leadership in science
and engineering. We are well-known in academic and industry circles for quality education
and outstanding return on investment.
One word I would use to explain my graduate experience at Mines… is community, because it’s really hard to move to a new state and a new city and have a whole new set of people you interact with every day but finding that group of people and finding a home here, within this community is really important.
