Advisory Board
The advisory Board of ITB Geothermal Master’s Program is in charges to provide strategic advice on the direction of the project and to develop a road map for long term sustainability of this project partnership for geothermal education. In this way, it was hoped to avoid many of the pitfalls of other initiatives by being effectively driven by the industry itself. Not only is this likely to provide a more successful result in achieving the necessary quantities of academically qualified people, it also provides a framework for industry to offer internships and other forms of technical apprenticeships to provide this new workforce with the essential work-experience – “raw graduates” alone would never solve the upcoming problem.
