Let’s work together!

During 2007-2010 the modern equipment and materials were purchased for research and installed in the renewed laboratories of the National Mining University with the REC support. From now young scientists have the unique possibility for doing research and getting new results. The research scope is formed by the topical problems of mining, rock mechanics, building, hydrogeology, geophysics, GIS, environmental studies etc.

Since the REC was founded more than hundred young scientists and students became the winner of competitions for the best course and graduation works, got grants for the scientific research, participation in outstanding international conferences, research stays abroad.

We invite all young scientists to working together. The modern scientific equipment already works and accessible for the new projects and studies.).
