Scope of Research

• Our engineering researchers have established
  world
• class reputations in designing and building
• components and devices, and in integrating
  these
• into systems and networks,
• Through multi-disciplinary and collaborative
• research, our design specialists incorporate
  into
• these new systems the essential human
  interface
• and form factors,
• This integrated approach to research makes the
• results of our work much more meaningful in a
  real
• and practical sense.

Technology Transfer and Innovations

• A considerable network of partnerships with
  industry and other
• leading research institutions in Canada and
  abroad expands the
• research and development horizon for our faculty
  and graduate
• students in fields such as
• Aerospace and materials,
• Interactive multi-media, micro and nanoscale
  technologies,
• Photonics and smart transportation systems,
• Complex systems simulation,
• Biomedical engineering and
• Industrial design.
