Here is what some of our previous Geology vacation program participants said about their experience at IGO: 

“I enjoyed the autonomy to undertake projects and tasks where plausible (i.e. minimal micromanaging). Having a structured project is also great in giving purpose to the vacation students' experience.” 

And 

“I enjoyed seeing the whole process of exploration, how the data is collected and all the work that goes into this crucial step. Data interpretation is also a key part of the process which is why having accurate data is important. I also enjoyed the variability of work in exploration, every day there was something different.” 

And 

“A highlight was working within such a great team. The company culture has always been very positive.”
