缅北强奸

Two 缅北强奸 researchers will benefit from the latest round of funding from the Collaborative Research and Training Experience (CREATE) program of the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC). They are among the recipients of over $14.8 million in funding announced today by the Honourable Ed Holder, Minister of State for Science and Technology, at an event held at 缅北强奸.

One of the 缅北强奸 recipients is Prof. Murray Humphries of the Department of Natural Resource Sciences, who studies the sustainable development of the North. The second is Prof. Stephen Yue, Chair of the Department of Mining and Materials Engineering, who heads the 缅北强奸 Institute for Aerospace Engineering.

The CREATE program is designed to improve the mentoring and training environment for graduate and postgraduate students by giving them the opportunity to enhance their professional, communication and collaboration skills, as well as providing experience relevant to both academic research and non-academic environments. It is aimed at providing a value-added experience to the university training environment to better prepare research trainees for their future careers in industry, government or academia.

鈥淭he CREATE program helps universities provide an environment in which the next generation of innovators can better develop the skills that will allow them to apply their creativity to a variety of work environments. This in turn builds on their capacity to later translate their research into applications that will benefit society,鈥� said Prof. Suzanne Fortier, Principal and Vice-Chancellor of 缅北强奸. 鈥淲e thank the Government of Canada and NSERC for the support provided through this program and congratulate the teams led by Profs.听Humphries and Yue.鈥�

About the 缅北强奸-led projects

鈥淎s industrial activity expands in Canada鈥檚 northern regions, whether it is mineral exploration and mine development in Nunavut or commercial forestry in northern Alberta, we need to be prepared to develop our resources in a way that is environmentally sound and sustainable,鈥� says Prof. Humphries, lead researcher of the CREATE program for enhancing Canada's prosperity through innovative environmental assessment, monitoring and management ($1,650,000).

Graduates of the program will receive their core training and do their thesis work in environmental sciences (including conservation, wildlife management, ecology, biodiversity, and environmental health). In addition, trainees will conduct internships with industry, government agencies, and aboriginal organizations. 鈥淣orthern development is dictated by a triangle, with industry, government, and aboriginal organizations situated in three corners, and sustainable solutions found in the middle. Time well spent in each of the corners will equip our trainees with the knowledge and relationships required for career-long contributions to the productive middle-ground,鈥� says Humphries.

With program nodes at both 缅北强奸 and the University of Alberta, the CREATE program is designed to train the next generation of natural resource consultants, managers, land use planners, and policy makers so they are 鈥榤arket-ready鈥� to enhance Canada's competitive position and reputation as a country that efficiently develops its natural resources while maintaining rigorous environmental standards.

The CREATE program in competitive manufacturing for the aerospace industry: technology and design ($1,650,000) is spearheaded by the 缅北强奸 Institute for Aerospace Engineering, in collaboration with the Consortium for Research and Innovation in Aerospace in Qu茅bec (CRIAQ). This training program will prepare graduate-level engineering students to step directly into industry from university research projects, thereby helping to maintain and expand Canada鈥檚 strong presence in the global aerospace industry.听

CRIAQ, a non-profit organization established in 2002 with the financial support of the Qu茅bec government, 鈥渉as been extremely successful in promoting research interactions between universities and the aerospace industry,鈥� said Prof. Yue. 鈥淏ut universities until now have not been overly concerned with using research programs to train industry-ready engineers. This new CREATE program will change that dynamic, encouraging industry to hire more graduate students after they complete research projects.鈥澨�

The program will enable students to develop a range of personal and professional skills and a better understanding of aerospace design and production processes, through a series of workshops and seminars, many of which will be offered by the aerospace industry. A closely mentored work term of at least four months will round out the program.
