Serving from the traditional unceded territories of the Lekwungen and WSANEC peoples for 50 years, Camosun College has been at the forefront of student training for Greater Victoria (GV), British Columbia (BC), and beyond. Camosun Innovates (CI), incorporating BC's first Technology Access Centre (TAC), has been the centre of applied research and technical development at Camosun College since 2010. In that time, CI has grown to become a regional leader in applied research and innovation, providing services for industries ranging from manufacturing and agriculture to sports and the arts. CI supports student training and industry partnerships in design thinking and ideation, composites construction and techniques, plastics forming/joining/molding, reverse engineering, 3d printing and scanning, prototyping and proof of concept, and all aspects of advanced manufacturing broadly defined. With our Materials Integration Research and Creativity Lab (MIRACL), Extended Realities Research and Innovation Studio (xRRAIS), and newly formed Centre for Applied Research and Training in Threshold Innovation (CARTTI) focusing on automation, mechatronics, and the industrial internet of things (IIoT), we are well placed to move students and SMEs towards and intro Industry 4.0. All of this points to the overall objectives of Camosun's applied research program, and the core commitments we have to business, community, culture, innovation, learning, and research. At its most basic, Camosun's applied research agenda seeks to improve learning for students, meet the needs of business and industry, address the inequities within communities and cultures, reduce ecological footprints, and make life better for as many Canadians as possible. This grant will train more students and change curriculum to make future learners more ready for the jobs of tomorrow, while aalso serving to diversify and expand the pool of students engaged in training for high0-demand jobs. It will focus on key areas identified by local business sectors as most important, including: enhancing technical, mechanical, electrical, and biochemical resolutions to business difficulties; expanding the applications of materials integration to environmental challenges; increasing our abilities to bring digital solutions to analog problems; and improving our impact among under-represented populations ranging from the disability community and new Canadians to women, First Nations, and LGBTQ2+ peoples.

从Lekwungen和WSANEC人民的传统未割让领土服务50年来，Camosun学院一直处于大维多利亚（GV），不列颠哥伦比亚省（BC）及以后的学生培训的最前沿。Camosun Innovates（CI）合并了BC的第一个技术访问中心（TAC），自2010年以来一直是Camosun学院的应用研究和技术开发中心。 在此期间，CI已发展成为应用研究和创新的区域领导者，为从制造业和农业到体育和艺术的行业提供服务。CI支持学生培训和行业合作，包括设计思维和构思，复合材料结构和技术，塑料成型/连接/成型，逆向工程，3D打印和扫描，原型设计和概念验证，以及广泛定义的先进制造的各个方面。 凭借我们的材料集成研究和创意实验室（MIRACL），扩展现实研究和创新工作室（xRRAIS）以及新成立的阈值创新应用研究和培训中心（CARTTI），专注于自动化，机电一体化和工业物联网（IIoT），我们有能力将学生和中小企业推向并引入工业4.0。 所有这些都指向Camosun应用研究计划的总体目标，以及我们对商业，社区，文化，创新，学习和研究的核心承诺。 在其最基本的，Camosun的应用研究议程旨在改善学生的学习，满足企业和行业的需求，解决社区和文化内的不平等，减少生态足迹，使尽可能多的加拿大人生活得更好。 这笔赠款将培训更多的学生和改变课程，使未来的学习者更好地为明天的工作做好准备，同时也有助于多样化和扩大从事高需求工作培训的学生人数。 它将专注于当地商业部门确定的最重要的关键领域，包括：提高技术，机械，电气和生物化学解决方案，以解决业务困难;扩大材料集成的应用，以应对环境挑战;提高我们将数字解决方案应用于模拟问题的能力;并改善我们在代表性不足的人群中的影响，从残疾人社区和新加拿大人到妇女，第一民族和LGBTQ 2+人群。
