Pour les élèves handicapés ou en difficulté d’adaptation ou d’apprentissage (EHDAA), terminer le secondaire présente un défi considérable. Pour aider les élèves EHDAA présentant des retards scolaires importants à terminer leur cheminement au secondaire, le Ministère de l’Éducation du Québec a mis en place le Parcours de formation axée sur l’emploi (PFAE), qui offre aux […]

This project will focus on the design and operation of a sustainable institutional building for vocational/professional training. This building, located at the CÉGEP de Victoriaville site, will apply sustainability principles and life cycle analysis as the cornerstone of its design. The intern will perform data analysis and carry out building performance simulations to provide additional […]

THIS IS A GENERIC TEXT PUT IN PLACE AS THERE WAS NO PROJECT OVERVIEW.

Health economic evaluation provides information about the value for money of new healthcare technologies, and is increasingly used to guide the allocation of scarce resources based on maximizing health gain. The molecular diagnostics company, PDI, has developed a technology to improve the identification of patients at high risk for oral cancers for early intervention, and […]

UNESCO Global Geoparks are a comparatively new designation with the focus being clearly on protection of Geoheritage, but also its promotion in the form of Geotourism Geoeducation and sustainable development. Since 2015 some 213 geoparks have been designated including one in Newfoundland Discovery UNESCO Global Geopark, which is based around the fact that it is […]

Demand for higher-capacity batteries has been rising exponentially from industries such as zero-emission vehicles, smart grids, unmanned aerial vehicles, and many others. However, current battery technology is limited by graphite anode materials, which have a low specific capacity. Furthermore, the manufacturing process of battery-grade graphites is criticized for the amount of GHG and environmental damage […]

The difficulty for elite athletes to have sufficient restorative sleep is confirmed for years. This study is here to help identify the issues triggering this lack of sleep thanks to the validation of the French version of a sleep questionnaire exclusively made for athletes and a global evaluation of their sleep and performance. This research […]

Le projet de recherche sera réalisé sur le site de Muskrat Falls, le nouveau barrage électrique situé au Labrador. Ce projet rendra disponible, d’ici 2016, 450 000m3 de bois coupés en prévision de la construction du réservoir hydraulique. Le projet de recherche constitue à réaliser des études technico-économiques et environnementales (analyse du cycle de vie) […]

Le transport du minerai par convoyeur dans les mines est crucial pour l’efficacité et la rentabilité. Les convoyeurs nécessitent une préparation préalable du minerai par concassage pour améliorer la durée de vie de la bande, la fiabilité du système et réduire les coûts. Comparés aux camions, les convoyeurs présentent un avantage énergétique grâce à leurs […]

Les enjeux de données, collection et annotation, sont des points clés de l’industrie des véhicules autonomes et des systèmes d’aide à la conduite. La simulation apprise depuis les données, sans passer par une modélisation de l’environnement, est une technologie à haut potentiel pour toute l’industrie. L’enjeu principal reste la séparation du background foreground, permettant la […]

Stormwater consists of a complex mixture of chemicals that is minimally regulated but can be a major source of pollution. Stormwater discharge from construction sites must comply with temperature, turbidity and pH requirements set by local governments in British Columbia. In order to achieve these limits, a treatment process, typically involving the use of chemical […]

This research project aims to improve the safety and maintenance of bridges by using advanced technology and methods to predict how bridges will respond to stress due to temperature fluctuations over time. Several sensors are installed on different elements of the bridge to measure strain and temperature values every second. The data is then analyzed […]
