Carleton University

Carleton University is a comprehensive public research university in Ottawa, defined by cross‑disciplinary collaboration and an industry‑engaged culture. Co‑op and experiential learning provide work‑ready talent year‑round, while an industry engagement office streamlines sponsored research, NDAs, and contracting. Proximity to Kanata North Technology Park, the National Research Council, and federal departments gives partners access to collaborations, specialized labs, testing resources, and policy stakeholders. Research is supported by competitive federal and provincial programs, including NSERC, SSHRC, CIHR, and the Canada Foundation for Innovation. A central technology transfer office manages IP, licensing, and startup formation, with incubator and maker resources to speed prototyping.
