Cyber range room.

uOttawa-IBM Cyber Range

First of its kind in Canada, the new uOttawa-IBM Cyber Range will allow students to experience a range of fully immersive cyberattack and cyber threat simulations using the most sophisticated technology and software. Be part of the next generation of cybersecurity professionals as we build cybersecurity resilience across Canada.

Experimental research flume lab

Tsunami and earthquake simulator

The experimental research flume is the only one in the world with a submerged seismic table to model the effects of undersea earthquakes, a custom-designed wave generator to create tsunami-like waves, and a sediment recirculation system to simulate the erosion and sedimentation processes that alter river and coastal landscapes.

Craft Lab

The Craft Lab, a microbrewing laboratory, is an innovative project that breaks the mould of conventional learning and provides an out-of-the-box, hands-on learning opportunity for students. By combining chemical engineering theory and hands-on entrepreneurship concepts, students create their own craft beer.

Design spaces

Designed to foster connections between different faculties, encourage new ways of thinking, enable experiential learning, and promote entrepreneurship.

STEM complex.

STEM Complex

Our STEM Complex is an interdisciplinary research and teaching facility designed to foster connections between different faculties, encourage new ways of thinking, enable experiential learning, and promote entrepreneurship. This state-of-the-art facility brings together departments from the faculties of Engineering and Science under the same roof at the University of Ottawa.
