Support Research that Changes Lives

At Nipissing University, research is about more than discovery – it’s about impact. Our scholars and students work together to address the most pressing issues of our time, from environmental sustainability and community health to education, social justice, and the power of storytelling.

With four prestigious Canada Research Chairs and a community of faculty experts, Nipissing is building a culture of curiosity and collaboration that fuels innovation across disciplines. We believe the pursuit of knowledge is strongest when it is shared – when researchers, students, and community partners work side by side to make life better for people in our region and beyond.
