Mining Engineering outreach to rural BC communities

The Norman B. Keevil Institute of Mining Engineering is also reaching out to First Nations and rural BC communities with a new program that brings them together with mining engineering students and the mining industry. The Mining and Communities Outreach Program is supported by a gift from Finning (Canada). The program is led by Resident Scholar Dr. Dawn Mills, and includes new courses, research and opportunities for co-op work terms in mining communities.
