Research projects at three Alberta post-secondary institutions will receive close to $2.1 million in grants through the Alberta government’s Research Capacity Program.
The Southern Alberta Institute of Technology (SAIT), Red Deer College and Olds College will receive the funding.
“The money will help these post-secondary institutions perform cutting-edge research in areas like 3D printing, clean energy technology and smart agriculture, helping companies in these fields use this research to grow and expand,” states the government in a release.
“A key part of Alberta’s Recovery Plan is preparing our grads for jobs in the real world,” says Demetrios Nicolaides, minister of advanced education. “By focusing on innovation and research, this announcement will help our post-secondary institutions ensure our students have the skills they need in a future economy.”
