Build your early career in one of the most future-critical areas of Earth & Environment. Mining is transforming fast — with low‑carbon technologies, renewable energy infrastructure and critical minerals driving huge global demand. This graduate programme gives you real technical exposure across mine water, geochemistry, hydrogeology, geotechnical engineering and waste management — helping shape sustainable mining practices around the world.
You’ll work on projects across Europe, the UK and internationally, supporting the full mining lifecycle: from exploration and feasibility through to operations, remediation and closure.
