Research on Campus

The University of Toronto Mississauga is home to a vast and eclectic range of innovative, world-class student and faculty researchers. While some academic institutions are satisfied with merely creating new knowledge, at U of T Mississauga, we consistently strive to share the knowledge we create. We do this through partnerships and collaborations with local government and industry, and through strong networks with our scholarly colleagues.
