DUBAI, 25th July, 2022 (WAM) — Emirates Global Aluminium (EGA) is welcoming 30 UAE national high school and university students for work experience this summer, strengthening their career prospects and encouraging the pursuit of opportunities in the UAE’s growing industrial economy.
The students are primarily in high school grades 10, 11, or 12, while some have just completed their first year of undergraduate studies in Science, Technology, Engineering or Mathematics (STEM) at university. Half of the selected candidates are female, reflecting both the high proportion of women studying STEM subjects at UAE universities and EGA’s drive to grow the role of women throughout the company.
The students will each spend around a month working in corporate functions at EGA in Jebel Ali in Dubai or Al Taweelah in Abu Dhabi, supervised by EGA mentors.
Iman Al Qasim, Executive Vice President of Human Capital at EGA, said, “As a UAE industrial champion, we aim to encourage talented young people to consider careers in the industrial sector and particularly in science, technology, engineering and mathematics fields. Work experience at EGA provides an opportunity both to hone career skills and gain insight into the contributions to be made to our nation through this type of work.
“We look forward to these young people joining EGA or other industrial companies permanently in the future, playing a long-term role in achieving the UAE’s Operation 300 bn industrial growth strategy.”
Since its inception in 2002, EGA’s summer work experience programme has provided opportunity to more than 600 UAE students.
