Labs and Simulation Spaces

The Centre for Healthcare Simulation and Research offers immersive spaces where students can learn and practice real world clinical skills. The area includes acute care rooms, apartment and clinic style environments, flexible VR and in-person simulation spaces, and dedicated debrief rooms. With high fidelity manikins and advanced audio visual recording, students can experience realistic scenarios, reflect on their performance and build confidence for practice.

The Library offers in-person research support, reservable study rooms and a quiet study pod for focused work. Students can borrow books, paperbacks and calculators, use any of the 18 computers available for study and coursework.

The Clinic in R101 provides opportunity for Professionals in Training to gain hands-on skills in our Massage Therapy teaching centre. Students are supervised by Registered Massage Therapists as they provide safe and effective treatments to their clients.

The Medical Imaging Suite gives students hands-on experience with the technology used every day in modern healthcare. This area includes multiple X-ray rooms and a CT scanner, allowing learners to practice real imaging techniques and build confidence in a safe, simulated clinical environment.

This is our Varian Acuity Simulator IX room, where students simulate real world practices in the area of radiation therapy.

The Medic Lab is part of the mHealth and eHealth Development and Innovation Centre. Mohawk students and researchers work with industry amd government partners to build software applications that provide healthcare practitioners access to patient data in a secure environment.

Our MRI Facility is equipped with a SIGNA™ Premier 3.0T from GE Healthcare and supportive resources. This machine is a beneficial and robust resource enabling advancements in imaging for various initiatives, educational delivery, clinical care and research projects.

The Centre for Integrated and Advanced Medical Imaging (CIAMI) gives students hands on access to our state of the art MRI system, opening the door to cutting edge learning and real world research opportunities. From exploring the brain to advanced cardiac and breast imaging, this space lets students experience the same technology used in leading hospitals.

This is a hands-on teaching lab where students in health-related programs explore and apply nutrition principles in real-world contexts. In this space, learners engage with food science, dietary analysis, nutrient evaluation, and other practical aspects of nutrition to deepen their understanding beyond the classroom. By working with tools, resources, and guided instruction, students build skills in assessing nutritional content, applying diet-related knowledge, and connecting theory to practice as part of their experiential learning experience.
