Vacation students deliver final presentations after completing industrial experience at Newcastle Rod Mill

It has been an incredible 13 weeks of learning and mentorship at Newcastle Rod Mill.

Engineering students, Lucy Ngondo, Jye Miskell, Lachlan Allwood, Charlie Moses and Martin Little joined our team in November, completing an induction, projects and presentations. Over the course of their time with us, learning included industrial workplace safety, emergency procedures, as well as one-to-one mentoring on their various projects to be presented at the end of the program.

Presenting their final projects on Wednesday, each student showcased their project, highlighting the tools and techniques they’re learned, and received a certificate from Newcastle Manufacturing Manager, Liam Bell.

Our five mentors guiding and overseeing our vacation students included Process Engineer, Ben Roberts, Principal Electrical Engineer, Damian Kolodziejski, Day Operations Team Leader, Jatin Pamnani, Systems and Process Engineer, Thomas McFee and Mechanical Engineer, Hugh Robson.

A massive congratulations to all our vacation students, we cannot wait to see all the great things you do, and hope to see you back with us again, here at InfraBuild.
