Created with the generous support of mining legend Ned Goodman and family, the Goodman School of Mines (GSM) is setting a standard of excellence in mining education in Canada and around the globe. Focused on the education and preparation of future mining leaders and the development of current mining professionals, GSM teaches the entire mining cycle in order to produce exceptionally well-rounded graduates who will meet the impending employment shortfall in the mining industry that is estimated to be between 60,000 and 130,000 workers by 2020.

No other Canadian university can deliver a similar educational experience.
