Feature Post: Women in Mining University of Alberta Student Chapter

The Women in Mining University of Alberta Student Chapter is the newest chapter under Women in Mining Canada and the only western Canadian student chapter. The group was started in early 2025, with the goal of fulfilling the need for an initiative on campus to encourage and uplift women and all students passionate about pursuing careers in mining. The University of Alberta has a robust and thriving mining engineering community, however WIM UofA aims to increase interdisciplinary collaboration between engineering, geosciences, land reclamation, and any other students interested in the mining industry.
