  • Solve resource exploration, environmental, sustainability and capital market problems through creative thinking and the extrapolation, interpolation and analysis of geoscience and financial information
  • Collate, synthesise, and visualise geoscientific and empirical data sets and conceptual information using digital technologies, and communicate this information to industry and community stakeholders concisely and accurately using written, visual, and verbal means appropriate to the situation.
  • Recognise the finite nature of Earth resources, and the need to manage and mitigate social, environmental and financial impacts of resource exploration and extraction and geohazards
  • Recognise and value environmental, indigenous and other community perspectives and acknowledge the need for sustainable use of earth resources in geological activities and in a commercial context
  • Work ethically and professionally, complying with applicable legislation and managing time and other resources efficiently and effectively; developing employability and leadership skills valued by industry, government and community
