Co-Op Mining Engineering Undergraduate Society

The Co-Op Mining Engineering Undergraduate Society, or CMEUS, is a department in the EUS. The CMEUS is the undergraduate society for all mining students, regardless of whether or not they have elected to maintain their co-op degree status.

Events

The CMEUS is a student-led Society responsible for organizing events and fun opportunities for involvement throughout each academic semester. These events vary greatly, from an active full-day ice fishing trip to a relaxing games night in collaboration with other departmental councils. Certain initiatives, such as industry speaker talks at McGill University and the organization of an annual trip to The Prospectors and Developers Association of Canada (PDAC) Conference in Toronto, offer mining engineering students at McGill diverse opportunities to gain insight on interesting topics and additionally network with industry professionals.

Banquet

Each Fall & Winter semester, CMEUS organizes a banquet for its students to relax after a (hopefully) successful semester! After the dinner, we all gather for an EUS-wide afterparty at a local club. The professors are invited to the Fall Banquet, so it is a great opportunity for getting to know them outside of the classroom.

E-Week

WE DRILL. WE BLAST. WE NEVER FINISH LAST. (or always?) But actually, to learn more, check out E-Week.

Academic Forum

Each Fall & Winter semester, the CMEUS VP-Academic is in charge of organizing a meeting with students and professors to go over the classes the students have taken throughout the semester. The purpose of this meeting is to discuss any comments, suggestions, or feedback the students might have regarding any of the MIME courses they may have taken.

MinTalk

Each fall & Winter semester, the CMEUS VP-Academic is in charge of organizing a symposium with students and industry leaders. The objective of this symposium is to introduce students to the mining industry and share the experience each individual has had. If interested in participating, please contact cmeus.vpexternal@mcgilleus.ca.

The Canadian Mining Games

Candian Mining Games 2020 McGill Delegation

The Canadian Mining Games (CMG) were established at McGill University in 1991, and each year the event is hosted by a mining engineering program somewhere in Canada. The Canadian Mining Games were created between a collaboration of a McGill mining engineering student and a mining engineering student from Polytechnique Montréal.

McGill Mining sends a delegation of 16 mining students to the competition each year to represent the program. At CMG, our team competes against universities from across Canada in various competitions to showcase our skills in academic and physical events. CMG also offers a great opportunity to network with various professionals and companies within the mining industry

The CMG McGill Delegation is open to any undergraduate student studying Mining Engineering. If you're interested in participating, the department sends out an email every September. Once you express interest, try-outs will occur to finalize the roster of 16!

The Lounge

All undergraduate mining engineering students can obtain access to our lounge - conveniently located at Frank Dawson Adams (FDA) 103. To gain access, a sign-up sheet is available to put down your information on both Facebook and Instagram, or you can contact any of the council members!

In the lounge, we have couches and a TV to relax, big tables and chairs for studying, and a fridge & microwave for all your lunch-storing needs. It's a great place to study, hang out with friends and a solid location to gather on Fridays before Blues Pub! There are lots of other fun things here and there, come drop by and see for yourself.

"In the lounge, we eat waffles on Wednesdays, and you know... do Mining stuff" - Rim Fayjhi, CMEUS President 2022-2023
