礦業(yè)工程學(xué)院始于1909年焦作路礦學(xué)堂的礦務(wù)學(xué)門，已有百年辦學(xué)歷史。1933年正式成立采礦冶金系，1952年將清華大學(xué)、北洋大學(xué)（天津大學(xué)）、唐山鐵道學(xué)院等院校采礦系并入中國礦業(yè)學(xué)院采礦系。2000年撤系建院，成立能源科學(xué)與工程學(xué)院，2007年更名為礦業(yè)工程學(xué)院。

學(xué)院現(xiàn)有專職教職工135名，其中兩院院士3名（含外聘）、教授40名，省部級以上人才稱號獲得者40余名。設(shè)立采礦工程、交通運輸和工業(yè)工程3個本科專業(yè)。目前，在校生規(guī)模為1913人，本科生1134人，碩士生644人，博士112人，留學(xué)生23人。辦學(xué)至今先后為國家和社會輸送萬余名畢業(yè)生。

學(xué)院擁有1個一級學(xué)科博士學(xué)位授權(quán)點、2個二級學(xué)科博士學(xué)位授權(quán)點、3個碩士學(xué)位授權(quán)點、3個專業(yè)學(xué)位授權(quán)點和礦業(yè)工程博士后科研流動站。建有“煤炭資源與安全開采國家重點實驗室”、“礦業(yè)工程國家級實驗教學(xué)示范中心”和“采礦工程國家級虛擬仿真實驗教學(xué)中心”等一批國家級教學(xué)和科研平臺。礦業(yè)工程學(xué)科是國家“211工程”、“985工程優(yōu)勢學(xué)科創(chuàng)新平臺”和“世界一流學(xué)科建設(shè)”的重點建設(shè)學(xué)科，在全國學(xué)科評估中名列第一，處于領(lǐng)先水平。

“十一五”以來，學(xué)院共承擔國家級科研項目93項，省部級科研項目168項和近千項面向企業(yè)的技術(shù)研發(fā)和服務(wù)項目；獲得國家級科技獎勵12項、省部級科技獎勵148項、授權(quán)專利410項。學(xué)院與國內(nèi)能源礦業(yè)科研院所和大型煤炭基地企業(yè)始終保持著常態(tài)化的科技合作，與美、英、澳、加、俄等20余所國外高校和研究機構(gòu)建立了穩(wěn)定的學(xué)術(shù)交流和互訪機制。

展望未來，學(xué)院將揚優(yōu)固本，拓新發(fā)展，努力創(chuàng)建世界一流礦業(yè)學(xué)科。

　　The School of Mines has a history of over 100 years, stemming from the mining department of Jiaozuo School of Railroad and Mines founded in 1909. A national readjustment of higher learning institutions in 1952 merged the mining engineering departments of Tsinghua University and the now-defunct Beiyang and Tangshan Railroad Universities into China Institute of Mining and Technology (CIMT, former CUMT). Thus，Our Department has rapidly evolved into a mining-oriented educational pattern and set her dominant status in the mining field. In 2000, she was upgraded as School of Energy Science and Engineering and was renamed School of Mines in 2007.

The School of Mines now has 135 full-time faculty and staff, including 3 academicians, 2 of whom are from other research institutes and colleges, 40 professors and over 40 talents with honored titles at or above provincial level. There are three undergraduate programs, namely mining engineering, transportation and industrial engineering. Currently, the total number of students in the school is 1913, including 1134 undergraduates, 644 postgraduates, 112 doctoral students and 23 overseas students. During the past 108 years, she has cultivated more than 10,000 graduates, most of whom have grown into the backbone of the construction and industry development of our country.

The School of Mines has 1 first-level discipline doctoral program, 2 second-level discipline doctoral programs, 3 master programs, 3 professional degree programs and 1 mining engineering postdoctoral program. A number of high-level national teaching platforms and research bases have been established, such as State Key Laboratory of Coal Resources & Safe Mining, National Experimental Teaching Demonstration Center of Mining Engineering and National Virtual Simulation Experimental Teaching Center of Mining Engineering. Focusing on mining engineering, the mining engineering discipline is one of the key disciplines listed in the national “211 Project”, “985 Innovation Platform for Advantageous Disciplines”, and national “First-class Discipline Project”. In the consecutive discipline evaluation conducted by Ministry of Education, the disciplines ranked the first.

　　Since the 11th Five-year Plan, the School of Mines has undertaken 93 national research projects, 168 research projects at provincial and ministerial level. The School has achieved 12 national science and technology awards, 148 science and technology awards at provincial and ministerial level and 410 authorized patents. The School has kept stable scientific and technological cooperation with domestic energy and mining research institutes and large coal enterprises. The School also establishes stable academic exchange and visit mechanism and has established a strong bond with over 20 universities and research institutes.

In the foreseeable future, the School of Mines will forge ahead, with a strong commitment to developing a world-top mining discipline.
