FOCUS ON MINING CAMP

Focus on Mining Camp
Sep 12, 2008

Will you be in Year 12 in 2009?
Are you studying TEE Science and Maths subjects?
Do you intend to study at university?
Do you have an interest in working in the mining industry?

Each year WASM runs a 4 day event called Focus on Mining which is aimed at Year 12 TEE students who are considering studying mining related courses at university. Consisting of a 4 day camp in Kalgoorlie during the mid-year school holidays, this all-expenses-paid experience introduces participants to the mining industry and what it has to offer.

During the camp, students tour operational mine sites, participate in hands-on workshops on campus, meet lecturers, current students and mining industry leaders, and enjoy a range of social activities. The local mining industry contributes to the cost of this event meaning that all airfares, accommodation, food and other expenses are completely covered.

Applications open in March each year for the Focus on Mining camp which is held in the mid year school holidays.
