Research Centres, Institutes and Laboratories

Drawing on our research strengths, researchers at the University of Regina have developed and maintain multiple research institutes, centres, laboratories, and facilities designed to generate research products and knowledge. The University has two types of research centres and institutes

  • University-based centres and institutes (under the authority of the Vice-President, Research)
  • Faculty-based centres and institutes (under the authority of the relevant dean). 

The University values the strengths and contributions of its research centres, institutes and labs and seeks to ensure their success as a vital part of the University’s research mandate.
