Collaborative Research
The University of Ottawa has a strong focus on fostering collaborative research and knowledge exchange with industry, government, and other partners. Among Canada’s top 10 research universities in both research funding and research intensity, uOttawa has impressive knowledge resources, research strengths and facilities that enable the performance of high-risk, fundamental, strategic research in several disciplines.
Licensing Technologies
The University of Ottawa has a portfolio of technologies and inventions that have been patented or for which a patent application has been filed. ISS grants access to such technologies through licenses to existing and start-up companies that have the capacity to develop the technology successfully into products.
Support Students
Companies may take advantage of numerous funding programs that aim to support students working on their industrial problems/research opportunities. Some examples would include:
- Government programs such as internships and grants;
- The uOttawa Coop program;
- Capstone projects for 4th year engineering students.
We remain open to any projects that are important to industrial partners, and will look for the best options to involve students as a component of their experiential learning activities.
