Curtin Institute of Minerals and Energy
To remain profitable, the minerals and energy sectors must continually develop innovative science and technology to enhance their business operations. The new Curtin Institute of Minerals and Energy offers direct responses to industry needs.
The five major themes for the institute are:
- exploration technologies
- planning and design
- production infrastructure and efficiency
- processing and delivery
- policy and economics
The institute draws significantly on the Curtin Resources and Chemistry Precinct, which is a strategically important part of its operations, but also utilises the wide range of other skills and expertise available within Curtin. Staff and students from all faculties are able to contribute to the institute's activities.
The critical mass of expertise, facilities and opportunity that the institute provides will attract professionals in research, education and industry from Australia and around the world.
