Trent University

Looking to study in Canada? The collegiate system offers unique learning opportunities outside of the classroom, enhances the diversity of our campus community, helps students form life-long friendships, and shapes a huge part of the Trent experience. Within Trent’s five colleges students find meaningful  connections with faculty and peers, create a “home away from home,” and engage in learning and social opportunities crucial to student growth. Trent continues to embrace the importance of colleges as smaller communities within the broader university.

Despite being a smaller university, Trent consistently produces high quality research. This ambition is frequently validated by external assessment and reviews, such as Macleans, Re$earch Infosource Inc. and Higher Education Strategy Associates(HESA). In their most recent national survey, HESA ranked Trent’s research 12th among 55 Canadian universities in impact for Sciences, Social Sciences and Humanities, noting that they have “by far the best publication record of any small‐ish school in the country across all disciplines.” In this index Trent ranked higher than 8 members of the U‐15 research universities in Canada. Trent’s size has allowed its researchers to strategically select a small number of research areas in which, through interdisciplinary approaches drawing from the sciences, social sciences and humanities, has allowed the University to become recognized both nationally and internationally. The Office of Research supports the university community in its mission to “advance learning through the creative interaction of teaching and research of the highest quality.” Responsible for achievement of Trent’s research goals and objectives, the Office of Research works in cooperation with other departments to implement the University’s strategic research plan. Trent University is proud to have signed the Dimensions: Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion Canada Charter. The Dimensions charter recognizes that a multiplicity of perspectives, lived experiences and the overall complexity of diverse individuals foster increased research excellence, innovation and creativity within the post-secondary sector and actively encourages committed universities to take a multidimensional and intersectional approach to equity, diversity and inclusion to achieve a future research community where all can thrive. Signing the Charter further strengthens Trent University Commitment to Equity, Diversity and Inclusion. The university already has a Canada Research Chairs Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Action Plan in place, and the Centre for Human Rights, Equity and Accessibility supports conversations and initiatives related to human rights, equity, diversity, and accessibility at Trent University. The Research Support Fund helps universities, colleges, and their affiliated research hospitals and institutes to maintain a world-class research environment. The fund can be used to maintain modern labs and equipment; provide access to up-to-date knowledge resources; provide research management and administrative support; meet regulatory and ethical standards; or transfer knowledge from academia to the private, public and not-for-profit sectors. At Trent University, Research Support Funding (formerly Indirect Costs) was invested in facilities, resources, management and administration, regulatory requirements and accreditation, and intellectual property.
