geography remote sensing gis researchOur students from Saskatchewan Polytechnic have a diversity of experiences and skills that they will be able to apply in focused research placements with your organization.
The minimum duration of students projects begins at three months but will ideally last for longer than one year. The majors of our students include Mining, Geography, Agriculture, and GIS.
We have intakes for students starting in May 2022.
Grant funding will be received for the projects - depending on the project, employers may be responsible for financially matching a portion of the funding.
Due to COVID-19 restrictions, experiences may take place virtually.
Learners
Deliverables will depend on the project and employer type. They may include:
- Maps showing results
- Statistical analysis
- Farm zones for precision agriculture
