Jerry Roose, Director of North American Environmental Operations, Freeport-McMoRan

“Freeport-McMoRan receives multiple benefits from its sponsorship of the Design Competition: name recognition and ability to highlight our commitment to sustainable development, task sponsorship, relationship development with key universities and professors, recruiting outstanding students and finally the development of Freeport staff through their participation as judges.“

Success Stories

_{“As a college senior, Gina Lombardi was discouraged by both the lack of environmental engineering jobs in her area and from the feeling that she couldn’t keep up with some engineering students who pulled a 4.0 average and scored 100% on every test. Her outlook changed significantly after participating in NMSU’s Waste-Management Education Research Consortium (WERC) Design Competition.}_{“There are many ways to be successful aside from, or in addition to a GPA. Those student engineers with work ethic, social and communication skills, organization, and drive to succeed–they will succeed,” Gina says. “WERC saved me in engineering and kept me in the field. I realized I have a spectrum of other strengths that make me a successful environmental engineer and colleague.}_“
