Careers in Science
From exploring new areas… to recovering the minerals… from processing the ore… to rehabilitation the site… scientists are essential in the mining industry.
Environmental Scientist Geologist Industrial Hygienist Laboratory Analyst Horticulturalist Surveyor
A Basic science degree usually takes at least three years of tertiary study. More specialised courses take longer.
Alcoa’s ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENTISTS make sure that our mining and processing operations are carried out in a responsible manner, to the world’s best standards.
Our CHEMISTS study the chemical and a physical properties of substances to help develop new mineral processing techniques. Alcoa’s worldwide Alumina Refining Research and Development program is now based in Kwinana, where new and exciting discoveries are waiting to be made.
As long as there are minerals to be mined, mining will need scientists. So whatever area you’d like to specialise in, Science is a sure way to an exciting and interesting career.
