Project: Electrifying the Future, MIRARCO Mining in partnership with the Goodman School of Mines
How to apply: Please send resumes to [email protected]
Application Deadline: March 31st, 2023
Project Description:
The “Electrifying the Future Project” is a bilingual (English/French) project that aims to bring awareness to students about careers and post-secondary programs that lead to servicing the Automotive and Mobility Industry. In its first phase, a rigorous marketing campaign will help to
change perspectives and bring awareness to a variety of career options in this industry. Two in-person events will provide elementary, high school and postsecondary students exciting and interactive experiences. First, high school students from around Northern Ontario will compete in “MineOpportunity: the automotive and mobility edition” (June 7 & 8). In this game, students work together to become the “wealthiest” team by successfully answering questions, completing challenges and activities about technology, engineering, geosciences, the
environment, careers, corporate social responsibility and the automotive and mobility industry. Second, two weeks of free summer day camps from July 17-21 and July 31-August 4th, 2023 will be offered for students in grades 6-9. STEM and non-STEM lessons and activities will be delivered at three locations (Laurentian University, Cambrian College and College Boreal), along with a one-day field trip to 3 local businesses (Epiroc, Technica Mining, and Laurentian Chrysler). The “Electrifying the Future” program will inspire coming generations to get involved in the industry by stimulating interest in career choices. It will also raise awareness of emerging trends of innovation and technology in the industry, and the importance of critical minerals. The resulting experiences will appeal to and meet the needs of diverse audiences, including Indigenous people, youth, women and other underrepresented groups.
