The Mining 360 Program has produced its first cohort of graduates, who benefited from executive training provided by the UA Department of Mining and Geological Engineering.
High-school students work with UA professors and students making biofuels, exploring wearable medical devices, working on computer software and testing aerodynamics.
Under the mentorship of professor Peiwen "Perry" Li, Gabriel Vasquez worked on a research project that incorporated 3-D printing and enhanced his resume as a "science diplomat."
