Postsecondary institution inaugurates Research & Innovation Boréal
Collège Boréal unveiled its 2020-2025 strategic plan on Monday, March 9 and officially inaugurated Research & Innovation Boréal (RIB), its new centre of applied research for innovation.
The centre is both a physical building and a commitment to fostering innovation and maintaining a focus on applied research projects.
The range of expertise offered by Research & Innovation Boréal reflects and strengthens the college’s traditional fields of expertise. Some of the projects currently underway are in areas such as agricultural sciences, new agri-food technologies, biodiversity protection and health in general.
Other projects deal with wider societal issues such as immigration, the Francophone community, Indigenous communities or early childhood education.
