Labs and Simulation Spaces

The Additive Manufacturing Innovation Centre is a specialized facility focused on advanced 3D printing and additive manufacturing technologies. It supports applied learning, research, and industry collaboration by enabling students to design, produce, and test complex components using cutting-edge equipment. The centre helps develop job-ready skills for careers in advanced manufacturing and emerging technologies.

The AutoCAD Lab supports hands-on learning in computer-aided design and drafting. Students develop technical drawing, modeling, and documentation skills using industry-standard AutoCAD software. Through practical projects, the lab prepares students to produce accurate designs used in engineering, architecture, and manufacturing environments.

The Automation Lab provides hands-on experience with automated systems used in modern industrial environments. Students learn to program, operate, and troubleshoot equipment such as PLCs, sensors, and control systems. Through applied, project-based learning, the lab builds practical skills for careers in automation, manufacturing, and industrial technology.

The automotive shop is a fully equipped, modern training space where students learn to diagnose, repair, and maintain today's complex vehicles. Featuring industry-standard tools, lifts, and diagnostic technology, the shop is a hands-on learning hub.

This is a hands-on learning space where students gain practical experience with the materials, methods and technologies used in today's construction industry. The lab supports programs across building sciences, construction management and skilled trades.

The Canadian Institute for Non-Destructive Evaluation (CINDE) is the not-for-profit/charitable, member-based technical society dedicated to the people and companies engaged in the business of non-destructive evaluation (NDE), non-destructive testing (NDT) and inspection.

Career Pathways lab is a welcoming multi-purpose space, designed to support both academic and social needs of students. Students can build new skills with the help of an Adaptive Technology specialist, exploring latest assistive technologies and tools. The lab is divided into two distinct sections to encourage collaboration, learning and connection. One side of the lab includes tables and chairs where students can relax, have their lunch socialize with peers, join clubs or connect with support staff in an informal and comfortable setting. 

An active learning and discovery space where students build foundational skills in cell biology, as well as agriculture and food biotechnology, and faculty conduct applied research, creating a collaborative environment that bridges teaching, experimentation, and innovation.

Used for sampling, analysis, and instrumental techniques across chemistry, biotechnology, and environmental programs, featuring new HPLC units that support advanced analytical training.
