German term

Bergschadenlehre

German to English Science Mining & Minerals / Gems Academic transcripts
I am translating a transcript of a mining engineer, issued by Technical University Mining College Freiberg in the German state of Saxony.
Under "Testate" it lists:
Messtechnik
Automatisierung
*** Bergschadenlehre ***
etc.

I don't understand what it means and don't know how to translate it.

The translation is intended for Australia.

I will appreciate all suggestions

There are many more references, search for "Mining Subsidence Engineering" "TU Bergakademie Freiberg"
e.g. "Internship bei Boliden, Research Assistant bei IFM - Institute for Mine Surveying, Mining Subsidence Engineering and Geophysics in Mining,..."

@Jonathan It's a German college, I have my grave doubts that this is the official name. Everything else is in German. Bergschaden is the damage done to structures, and this is not obvious here. But chapeau, great research.

Peer comment(s):

neutral Edith Kelly : Hi Jonathan, page 6 reads: mining economics. And covering for many years the Swiss Tunnelling Congresses, it's actually "subsidence damage" because it relates to damage done to structures due to subsidence

Sorry, it's page 6 of the PDF, marked page 5 on the bottom, there you will see the 'official' name of the course
agree oa_xxx (X) : 'Mine' seems common on AU sites
