Faculty members are involved in domestic and international studies including:
- Modeling and visualization of economic deposits
- Mine safety modeling
- Applications of machine learning techniques to mining problems
- Modeling of mining-related environmental problems related to groundwater flow and transport of solutes
- Geology of metallic ore deposits with emphasis on geochemistry
- Process/product development, instrumentation and process control
Department laboratories are equipped and operated to support the field and modeling studies including seismic petrophysics, rock and mineral preparation and visualization, environmental magnetism, aquatic optics and remote sensing, and geo-hazard and geo-resource characterization. The Computational Research Center, housed at the Great Lakes Research Center on campus, is home to the region's most powerful supercomputer "Superior".
