The most important obstacle in mining education is the inability to
implement theoretical knowledge into professional life after graduation.
Advanced technology has offered some solutions to face this obstacle for the
last three decades. Virtual Reality can be used as an effective tool to
transmit theoretical knowledge into the working experience. Although it has
been used in the industry for years, the importance of Virtual Reality has been
fully understood by education institutions, particularly after the pandemic.
Nowadays, recent advances in information and communication technologies allow
users to experience VR technology at a reasonable price. Therefore, Virtual
Reality technology is developing rapidly and its applications are increasing
day by day including educational institutions. This paper introduces Virtual
Reality technology and discusses some of the applications of the mining
industry in terms of education and training.
