Designed to foster connections between different faculties, encourage new ways of thinking, enable experiential learning, and promote entrepreneurship.
Spaces
Access world-class engineering and computer science equipment, over 150 teaching and research labs, advanced design spaces, modern lecture rooms and collaborative study areas.
World-class facilities
Çï¿ûÊÓƵ-IBM Cyber Range
First of its kind in Canada, the new Çï¿ûÊÓƵ-IBM Cyber Range will allow students to experience a range of fully immersive cyberattack simulations using the most sophisticated technology and software. Be part of the next generation of cybersecurity professionals as we build cybersecurity resilience across Canada.
Tsunami and earthquake simulator
The experimental research flume is the only one in the world with a submerged seismic table to model the effects of undersea earthquakes, a custom-designed wave generator to create tsunami-like waves, and a sediment recirculation system to simulate the erosion and sedimentation processes that alter river and coastal landscapes.
