Career Path Forecast
According to the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, Employment of mining and geological engineers is projected to grow 4 percent from 2019 to 2029, about as fast as the average for all occupations.

Employment growth for mining and geological engineers will depend upon demand for coal, metals, and minerals. These resources are used in many products, from construction materials and cars to cell phones and computers. As companies look for ways to cut costs, they are expected to contract more services with engineering services firms, rather than employ engineers directly.

The best opportunities may require frequent international travel or even living in different countries for extended periods of time to support mining operations around the world.
