Abstract

Engineers
in all branches provide their plans or designed-items according to their
knowledge and capacities. In design stage, engineers are expected to perform in
creative manner to solve real world engineering problems. Mining engineers, similarly,
should think differently to provide original plans and design products related
with mines and mine operations. In order to graduate innovative engineers,
different education methods have currently been applied in engineering
departments. Importance of creative thinking in mining engineering and new
engineering education methods were searched here through documents. Then basically,
influences of art on engineering have been evaluated.

Keywords

Mining, engineering education, art and creativity, effects of art on engineering
