中文介绍
科罗拉多矿业学院(Mines)是一所专门从事科学和工程的公立研究型大学,位于科罗拉多州戈尔登市,距离丹佛市中心的商业区仅15英里
它成立于1859年,主要作为当地矿工和定居者的供应中心(当时的“黄金城”是一个淘金热城镇,居住着探矿者)。到1866年,当地主教乔治·M·兰德尔(George M Randall)认识到有必要将高等教育带到该地区,并着手建设一所包括矿山学校在内的大学
当矿山于1874年开业时,其早期学术课程的重点是黄金和白银及其开采。学生可以选修化学、冶金、矿物学、采矿工程、地质学、植物学、绘图和数学等课程
如今,Mines将“了解地球、利用能源和维持环境”作为优先事项,其科学和工程课程强调“对地球及其资源负责任的管理”
该大学的校园里既有屡获殊荣的现代建筑,也有恢复昔日辉煌的历史建筑。其中包括成立于1874年的矿山地质博物馆,展出19世纪的矿物、宝石、化石、陨石和历史采矿文物
Golden酒店位于落基山脉的山麓,可以方便地欣赏到迷人的风景和一系列户外运动。文化景点以美术馆和博物馆的形式出现:它拥有整个科罗拉多州最多的人均景点
戈尔登也是库尔斯啤酒公司总部所在地,其啤酒厂是当地的旅游景点,也是该地区的主要雇主之一
在田径场上,Mines的学生被戏称为掘矿者,他们的运动队的颜色是银色和蓝色
英文介绍
Colorado School of Mines (Mines) is a public research university specialising in science and engineering, located in the city of Golden, Colorado, just 15 miles from Denver’s downtown business district.
Established in 1859, it mainly acted as a supply centre for local miners and settlers (the then ‘Golden City’ was a gold-rush town, populated by prospectors). By 1866, a local bishop, George M Randall, had recognised the need to bring higher education to the region and set to work constructing a university that would include a school of mines.
When Mines opened in 1874, the focus of its early academic programmes was on gold and silver, and their extraction. Students could take courses in chemistry, metallurgy, mineralogy, mining engineering, geology, botany, drawing and maths.
Today, Mines priortises ‘understanding the Earth, harnessing energy and sustaining the environment’ with a science and engineering curriculum that emphasises ‘responsible stewardship of the earth and its resources.’
The university’s campus is home to both award-winning modern buildings and historical architecture restored to its former glory. Among them is the Mines’ Geology Museum, founded in 1874, which exhibits mineral, gemstone, fossil, meteorite and historic mining artefacts from the 19th century.
Located in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains, Golden itself offers easy access to stunning scenery and a range of outdoor sports. Cultural attractions come in the form of art galleries and museums: it boasts the most per capita within the whole of Colorado.
Golden is also home to the headquarters of Coors Beer and its brewery acts as a local tourist attraction, as well as being one of the leading employers in the area.
On the athletics field, Mines’ students are nicknamed the Orediggers and their sports teams’ colours are silver and blue.
