These critical sectors underpin all areas of society - from powering our cities and vehicles, to the smartphones in our pockets.

• Australia's only university teaching mine automation

  Through our Institute for Sustainability, Energy and Resources, the ³ÉÈË´óƬ has led Australia in the development of fully integrated, AI-driven resource value chains. We're helping many energy, mining and resources companies incorporate or enhance self-learning extraction-and-processing control systems to extract greater value from increasingly complex resources - faster, safer and at lower cost. And we can pass that knowledge on to you. Our recent industry experience includes collaborating with:

  • BHP, OZ Minerals and others on mining and processing control platforms
  • Boart Longyear, a global drilling giant, to allow generation of geological information in close to real time, directly at the drill site
  • Orica, an Australia-based multinational commercial explosives and blasting systems specialist, to apply digitally integrated AI to their blast models.

• Full-spectrum energy expertise

  We also have significant, proven expertise in all areas of the energy sector, with experience advising on - and leading - projects relating to:

  • optimal power system and resources planning, modelling and operation
  • renewable energy generation and hybrid systems
  • energy storage, including advanced batteries and underground hydrogen
  • critical minerals, advanced energy materials and catalysts
  • microgrids and electric vehicles infrastructure.

  We're highly capable in the areas of environmental sustainability and social licence. And again, we can pass on all this knowledge to you.

• Career prospects

  Employment growth for the majority of energy, mining and resources roles range broadly from moderate to very strong, with the industry projected to grow by up to 5.9% by 2026^†.
