Students from Catholic schools were selected to participate the Space Industry Work Experience Program. Gabriela Coehlo from St Aloysius College and Patrick Rawlins from St Michael’s College were chosen on the merit of their application to work with The University of Adelaide on existing research projects. The placements were arranged by The South Australian Space Industry Centre and made it possible for students to contribute in a small way to the space industry work at the university. During her week of work experience, Gabriela investigated the long-duration stability of medicines on the International Space Station. Patrick developed his Python skills during his work experience research into Graph Neural networks (GNN).

The Space Industry Work Experience Program is open to students enrolled in a South Australian secondary school who are 15 years of age or older. Applications for the next round of the Space Industry Work Experience Program will open during Semester 2, 2021 and be communicated to students by their school.
