Whether it’s providing expert commentary, leading groundbreaking research, or making a difference in the community, our students, faculty, staff and alumni are making headlines. 

Nipissing researchers are helping to shine a light on the importance of inclusivity in research. This commitment was on display at the PARN Research Camp, held this past October at Brock University’s St. Catharines campus, where students, researchers, and allies gathered to explore inclusive and participatory research methods. This immersive, three-day event shared insights and skills to improve research practices focused on enhancing the quality of life for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) and their families.

Three students from Nipissing University’s Environment & Sustainability Post-Baccalaureate program recently presented their work on a geospatial interface for the City of North Bay’s fire hydrant inspections during a special event at City Hall. During the program, they acquired skills in geospatial technologies (GIS, GPS, Remote Sensing), an entirely new area for them given their diverse scientific backgrounds.
