Our laboratory facilities can provide analysis on water quality issues, fish health, and soils. We do not compete with the private laboratories as we can provide only preliminary results. Students can be hired to do data collection, monitoring or other types of research for industry. Students are looking for challenging projects for research projects and the results are formally presented at the end of the degree program at a public presentation. Malaspina University-College faculty members provide contract research services either through the institution or as a private arrangement.
Projects can take a few days or up to two years to complete, depending on the nature of the problem.
The Technology Transfer Centre is a provincial initiative funded through the Information, Science and Technology Agency .
