"Karen Brookman (BScH Geology) is convocating this week and after walking across the stage, is walking directly into a job in her field.

Her role isn’t completely new to her, she is returning to a job as Geologist in Training at Bayside Geoscience in Thunder Bay, Ontario. She worked in a similar role last summer with Bayside Geoscience and is thrilled at the opportunity to return in a full-time capacity. Karen shares, “It is a huge relief to have a position lined up right after finishing university, especially in my field of study. I feel most at home when I am working outside in the field, and I am looking forward to getting back to bushwhacking in Northern Ontario. The mineral exploration industry is doing great right now, and it feels inspiring to be contributing to something bigger than myself. It is hard work, and I am more than happy to be doing it.”"
