The Centre for Discovery and Innovation at Cape Breton University will sustain CBU for future generations and drive population growth and the economic health of the entire Island. This will not happen without government action.
This new facility will:
- Further attract domestic and international students to study in expanded science, engineering and technology programs
- Facilitate partnerships between community and CBU researchers through a Community Innovation Hub
- Train future nursing and public health practitioners, ready to address post-covid and future world pandemic challenges
- Honour the life and legacy of Donald Marshall Jr. through the Marshall Institute.
