Ivanhoe International Center
Welcome International Students!
The South Dakota School of Mines & Technology has a thriving international community, including students and faculty, resources and support, to help international students thrive and succeed here.
International students have historically constituted approximately 5 percent
to 12 percent of the total student population attending the South Dakota
School of Mines & Technology (SDSM&T). In the fall semester,
2009, there were approximately 115 international students from twenty
countries enrolled in undergraduate and graduate studies. The faculty
includes twenty-five individuals from eighteen overseas countries.
The Ivanhoe International Center (IIC) was established at SDSM&T
in the fall semester, 1994, through a generous gift by an alumnus, Mr.
Lytton F. "Buster" Ivanhoe. The IIC is located in the surbeck student center, and is the center of international activities on campus. A broad
program of services is provided to international students.
The South Dakota School of Mines & Technology currently has an
international student community that comprises approximately 6 percent of our
student population. Assistance is available in the Ivanhoe International
Center (located in the Surbeck Center), and the Dean of Students
Office. Please contact us for any help you may need. We are here to
assist you and we want to help you as much as possible.
