Spread across three campuses, St. Lawrence College supports the training and development of the most significant footprint of any Canadian College. This Eastern Ontario footprint is home to 16,861 companies, representing $25.5B of income in 2020. By 2040, Eastern Ontario's population is projected to rise by 23.2 percent to 2.22 million, with all major age groups projected to grow. Like other Canadian regions, Eastern Ontario has been shifting to advance manufacturing and logistics to stay competitive and on the cutting-edge using advanced technology. However, the resources to support this transition have been more urban-centric than rural-focused. Many companies face technical and business model challenges in embracing this shift. Overcoming these challenges is the focus of The Rapid Engineering Group for Research in Eastern Ontario (REGReO). NSERC investment will establish the REGReO as a leading-edge, applied research and industry interaction facility to support rapid industry innovation. The REGReO will assist the eastern highway 401 corridor's manufacturing, production, and technology sector SMEs to adopt new approaches to design, develop and improve the engineering and engineering processes employed by these companies in order to achieve engineering advancement and product and manufacturing improvement. SLC faculty and student expertise in Energy Systems Technology, Instrumentation and Controls Technology, Environmental Engineering and Biotechnology, Civil Engineering Technology and Canada's Only Wind Turbine Technician program will catalyze innovation in SME partners. The REGReO research vision aligns with critical stages of the engineering process that are essential to fostering innovation and outputs that lead to successful commercialization. St. Lawrence College students will develop service and product development and design skills, laboratory experimentation, field research, project management, communications, ethics, entrepreneurship, leadership, and teamwork by participating in research projects. Although St. Lawrence College has successfully supported projects in this area, NSERC's support of the REGReO represents an opportunity to increase the group's engagement with regional industry partners.

分布在三个校区，圣劳伦斯学院支持任何加拿大大学最重要的足迹的培训和发展。安大略东部的足迹是16，861家公司的所在地，2020年的收入为255亿美元。到2040年，安大略东部的人口预计将增长23.2%，达到222万，所有主要年龄组的人口预计都将增长。与加拿大其他地区一样，安大略东部一直在转向先进的制造业和物流业，以保持竞争力，并利用先进技术保持领先地位。 然而，支持这一过渡的资源更多地以城市为中心，而不是以农村为重点。 许多公司在接受这一转变时面临技术和商业模式的挑战。 克服这些挑战是快速工程研究小组在东安大略（REGReO）的重点。NSERC的投资将使REGReO成为一个领先的应用研究和行业互动设施，以支持快速的行业创新。REGReO将协助东部401公路走廊的制造、生产和技术部门的中小企业采用新的方法来设计、开发和改进这些公司所采用的工程和工程流程，以实现工程进步和产品及制造改进。SLC教师和学生在能源系统技术，仪器仪表和控制技术，环境工程和生物技术，土木工程技术和加拿大唯一的风力涡轮机技术人员计划的专业知识将促进中小企业合作伙伴的创新。REGReO研究愿景与工程过程的关键阶段保持一致，这些阶段对于促进创新和导致成功商业化的产出至关重要。圣劳伦斯学院的学生将通过参与研究项目来培养服务和产品开发和设计技能，实验室实验，实地研究，项目管理，沟通，道德，创业精神，领导力和团队合作。 虽然圣劳伦斯学院已经成功地支持了这一领域的项目，但NSERC对REGReO的支持代表了一个增加该集团与区域行业合作伙伴接触的机会。
