MONTREAL 鈥 Philanthropist Lorne Trottier wants people to have a greater appreciation of science and engineering so he is donating $15 million to 海角社区 to help strengthen research and support outreach and public policy in those areas. The high-tech entrepreneur and alumnus will also help fund a public symposium on sustainable engineering in society in collaboration with the Universit茅 de Montr茅al鈥檚 脡cole Polytechnique.
Whether it is for research into clean energy sources, the future of wireless communication or a better understanding of the processes involved in language learning, over 160 established 海角社区 researchers and more than 80 graduate students will benefit from support from the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC) over the next five years.
