Niagara Research is the home page of applied research at Niagara College. Applied research is broadly defined as the application of new or existing knowledge to solve practical real-world problems and advance the goals of our community.
The role of Niagara Research is to provide real world solutions for business, industry and the community through applied research and development activities.
Niagara Research, in partnership with business or community partners, conducts applied research projects that model or simulate solutions, develop and test prototypes, adopt new technologies and knowledge, develop and evaluate new or improved products, processes, or solutions to community issues.
Research activities are administered through the Research and Innovation Division and are conducted by faculty and staff experts, guided by our Vision, Mission and Objectives as well as the Niagara College Research Plan.
Students are one of the main methods of the College’s transfer of knowledge to business and industry partners through applied research projects, work placements, and as skilled and knowledgeable graduates.
