Labs and Simulation Spaces

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.

The Clean and Renewable Energy Lab at Mohawk College’s Fennell Campus provides students with hands-on experience in sustainable energy technologies and energy management systems. Equipped with industry-relevant tools and equipment, the lab supports learning in solar power, energy generation, storage, distribution, and smart energy systems. As part of Mohawk’s commitment to sustainability and innovation, the lab helps students develop the practical skills needed to design, operate, and maintain clean energy solutions for a rapidly evolving industry.

Associated with the School of Climate Action, this space is used for modeling carbon footprints, studying sustainability concepts, and developing mitigation strategies using environmental data.

The Digital Twin Observatory is a collaborative space at Mohawk College where teams can visualize and explore real‑time data through interactive digital models. This space is equipped with dynamic displays and analytics tools, the observatory supports planning, innovation, and evidence‑based decision‑making.

A hands‑on learning space featuring state of the art equipment such as a wall-mounted water purification system and a mini water treatment plant to support training in environmental monitoring and sustainable water systems.

Focused on quantitative chemical analysis and wet chemistry techniques, equipped with two new flame photometers for measuring metal ion concentrations such as sodium, potassium, calcium, and lithium.

A foundational laboratory where students develop essential industry‑related skills in titration, pH measurement, and core wet‑chemistry techniques used across environmental, chemical, and biotechnology technician roles.

Used mainly by Biotechnology students, featuring equipment for organic synthesis and purification along with new digital microscopes for advanced analytical work.

The Sustainable Design Lab at Mohawk College’s Fennell Campus provides students with a collaborative space to explore environmentally responsible design solutions. Through hands-on projects, students apply sustainable design principles, innovative technologies, and creative problem-solving to develop products, spaces, and systems that support a more sustainable future.
