workshops designed for photonics professionals.
Algonquin's new 115,000 sq.ft. Advanced Technology
Centre, scheduled to open in August 2002, will have
over 3500 sq.ft. of dedicated photonics laboratory
space. The new photonics facilities will support
laboratory experimentation in optics, opto-electronics,
opto-mechanics, fibre optics, fibre devices, imaging,
lasers and packaging. These state-of-the-art facilities
will provide a superb venue for conducting applied
research in the area of photonics. These facilities
will also enable Algonquin to graduate the highly
skilled Photonics Engineering Technologists required
to support world-class photonics research and development
in the Ottawa region.
