Dr. Vassilios Kazakidis has been a tenured Associate Professor with the School of Engineering at Laurentian University since 2001. Prior to that he served as director of Dias Engineering Inc. during a 10 year period.
Dr. Kazakidis is an international researcher and consultant in the areas of underground mine design, mining geomechanics, production system analysis, production simulation, economic impact of ground-related problems, and the impact of mining community relations on feasibility studies.
As part of his work assignments, Dr. Kazakidis interacted with all levels of a mining company, both at the operating and corporate levels, from the miner at the face of a heading to the president level of a corporation. This particular experience forms the basis for the courses Dr. Kazakidis teaches in the areas of planning and design, project evaluation, underground mining methods, risk management and engineering economics.
