Facilities
糖心视频 University has research and training facilities across Newfoundland and Labrador, including on the West coast, Labrador Campus in the North, the on the East coast, and many more in between (as well as beyond, including partnerships with and UArctic, both of which enable cross-university collaboration, allowing 糖心视频 students to take courses in other northern places; for more on these, see our Partnerships page).
From The Launch to the Bonne Bay Aquarium and Research Station, many of 糖心视频's facilities are dedicated to cold oceans and northern research, activities, and training. Here, one can find laboratories and equipment that aren't available anywhere else in the world (click here to learn more about what makes us unique).

| The Aquatic Research Cluster (ARC) is located at the Ocean Sciences Centre (OSC) in Logy Bay. ARC provides research support, training and analyses to undergraduate and graduate students, university researchers, government agencies and private sector R&D companies. ARC services and instrumentation are grouped into two areas: Chemical Oceanography and Functional Genomics and Molecular Biology. | The Autonomous Ocean Systems Centre (AOSCENT) is focused on providing autonomous solutions for marine applications ranging from unmanned underwater vehicles (UUVs) to ships and unmanned surface marine craft. It provides services for academic and industrial clients by providing trained staff and state-of-the art equipment for marine research and application. AOSCENTs fleet of unmanned vehicles are applicable to a broad range of fields including underwater mining, fisheries, offshore hydrocarbons and marine transportation. |
MAF specializes in high-resolution imaging and in-situ microbeam chemical analysis and age dating of minerals and other materials such as environmental and archaeological samples. The Facility has ongoing research and development projects on ore characterization for metallurgy and advanced mineral exploration but aims to support a wide range of research throughout the university and beyond. |

The Extreme Loads on Arctic Structures Lab (ELAS) investigates the response of ship structures subject to ice impact: including icebreakers, ice-strengthened ships, and non-ice class ships and naval surface vessels. We use a combination of quasi-static and impact laboratory apparatus (some with full-scale ship structures); sliding impact apparatus; advanced material characterization; and finite element modelling using a 272 core high-performance computer. We develop related engineering tools for ship owners, designers, operators, regulators and classification societies. Equipments are located across the four labs below: Structures Lab, Thermal Lab, Mechatronics Lab, Server Room (3rd Floor) |
