School (IAESS) in January 2010.<\/p>\n<p>To be held at Curtin\u2019s Bentley Campus from 10-17 January, the program is the first IAESS to be held in WA following the success of similar programs conducted in the eastern states by Engineering Aid Australia, and aims to give Indigenous Year 11 and 12 students an insight into engineering and university life.<\/p>\n<p>Curtin\u2019s Dean of Engineering, Professor Moses Tade, said he would like to see more Indigenous students study engineering.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIndigenous engineers would have an opportunity to develop infrastructure, not only for our cities and mine sites, but for remote communities and rural Australia,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese are areas most in need of infrastructure development.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThrough the summer school, Curtin, Engineering Aid Australia and the Chamber of Minerals and Energy hope to inspire young people to consider engineering as their future career.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are inviting students from the city and regional areas to live at our Bentley Campus and take part in the 7-day program which includes visits to engineering companies, major local projects plus take part in classroom activities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Professor Tade said successful summer school applicants would have their travel and accommodation costs paid.<\/p>\n<p>Applications close on 7 December, 2009 and
