Associateship of the Camborne School of Mines or ACSM is an award of the Camborne School of Mines Trust.

Candidates successfully completing programmes of study in the Camborne School of Mines leading to degrees of the University of Exeter are eligible for additional awards made by the Senate of the University of Exeter on behalf of the Camborne School of Mines Trust. These awards are as follows:

• Diploma of the Camborne School of Mines (DipCSM) for HND qualifications. This may be awarded to suitably qualified candidates as a first-class diploma.
• Associateship of the Camborne School of Mines (ACSM) for BEng and BSc degrees
• Master of the Camborne School of Mines (MCSM) for MSc, MPhil and PhD degrees

Within the mining profession the ACSM and MCSM are highly regarded awards. They are two of the few associate awards within the mining and other earth-based industries. The ACSM has been awarded to all graduates of CSM with the required grades since 1910, and in 1974 the ACSM was accredited by the Council for National Academic Awards.
