Colorado School of Mines

During my study I participated with an exchange program. During fall 2002 I went for 1 semester to the Colorado School of mines in Golden. Golden is located just west of Denver and lies against the eastern border of the Rocky Mountains. The field works and the many excursions made the exchange program very exiting and learnfull. In Fall 2004 I returned to CSM to the in order to obtain a Master's Degree in Mining Engineering. I Graduated May 13th 2005. During this year I made a lot of new friends
