Dr Ruth Shaw

Manager, ARC Training Centre for IOCR

School of Chemical Engineering

Faculty of Sciences, Engineering and Technology

I manage the ARC Training Centre for Integrated Operations for Complex Resources.
The Training Centre is a 4 year, ARC funded project hosted by the University of Adelaide. The Training Centre brings together major mining companies, mining equipment, technology and service companies and three Universities to deliver the next generation in scientists and engineers highly trained in sensors, data analytics and artificial intelligence for automated, integrated and optimized mining in complex resources.
