There has been an ongoing debate on how to transform engineering education to better prepare students for today`s professional world that is characterized by increasingly complex problems and challenges that engineers are tasked with upon entering the industry. Within the conceive–design–implement–operate (CDIO) framework, entrepreneurship education presents a valuable pedagogical approach to foster the necessary skills of the students through integrated, hands-on, active learning experiences. While numerous publications have addressed possibilities of how experiential, problem-based, project-based and active learning can be integrated into engineering curriculum, there has been hardly any attention on mining engineering with respect to adopting this approach. This paper will address the possibilities of integrating entrepreneurship education into mining engineering programs in particular. This paper will enhance and foster discussion among academics from mining engineering on how to integrate elements of entrepreneurship education on a course, program and departmental level to infuse value creation experiences across the curriculum.

关于如何转变工程教育以使学生更好地为当今的职业世界做好准备的争论一直存在，该职业世界的特点是工程师在进入该行业时所面临的日益复杂的问题和挑战。在构思-设计-实施-操作 (CDIO) 框架内，创业教育提供了一种有价值的教学方法，通过综合、动手、积极的学习体验来培养学生的必要技能。尽管许多出版物已经讨论了如何将体验式、基于问题的、基于项目的和主动学习整合到工程课程中的可能性，但在采用这种方法方面，采矿工程几乎没有受到任何关注。本文将特别讨论将创业教育融入采矿工程项目的可能性。本文将加强和促进采矿工程学者之间关于如何在课程、项目和部门层面整合创业教育元素以在整个课程中注入价值创造经验的讨论。
