Our Students

We pride ourselves on bringing together a diverse group of individuals from all facets of the extractive resource industry – science, policy, economics, and more. The program's genesis is rooted in the need for a greater variety of thought and individual representation in an industry notoriously lacking diversity, and MEERL presents an ideal setting for innovative concepts to flourish. Reach out to us today to see if this is the program for you!

"MEERL challenged me to think beyond technical solutions and focus on the bigger picture. It gave me the confidence to transition into leadership roles, where I can now contribute to the energy industry's evolution by driving responsible and impactful change."
