Four masters students from 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 have received a boost for their career plans in the energy sector.
Michael Giles, Cody MacDonald, Clarke Campbell and Jonathan Cribb were awarded the 2007 Pengrowth-Nova Scotia Petroleum Innovation Grant. The research grant is valued at $15,000 over two years. All four earth science students are focusing their research on topics related to Nova Scotia鈥檚 offshore geology.
Virginia Brake, from Kippens, Nfld., won the scholarship last year. She is doing seismic interpretation work on the eastern Scotian slope.
Mr. Giles, who is doing seismic studies focusing on the Laurentian Channel, says the grants are important because they give students experience working in Nova Scotia. The hope is that they鈥檒l stay instead of moving out west.
The Pengrowth-Nova Scotia Petroleum Innovation Grant was established in 2005, as part of the $3 million Pengrowth-Nova Scotia Energy Scholarship Fund. The scholarship program also provides up to 21 undergraduate and trades scholarships annually.
Pengrowth is one of the owners of the Sable Offshore Energy Project.聽聽
