If being outdoors is to your liking, a career in geomatics may be for you. Geomatics involves the location and mapping of natural and man-made physical features, as well as property and other boundaries. Geomatics engineers are skilled in the traditional forms of surveying, the collection of geographic data using electronic survey devices, and the use of specialized software.

Many careers exist within mining operations that are essential to the development of the goods and materials that we use every day. Examples of these careers are: blasters, diamond drillers, excavators, prospectors, and mining engineering technologists/technicians. You can also "earn while you learn" by taking an apprenticeship! Visit www.apprenticetrades.ca for more information about apprenticeship programs in your region.
