We work together to answer the big questions facing our world. With expertise and activity in a wide array of subjects, our scholars are a major driver of innovation and insight for our province and for the region.
UNB's annual Research Celebration Week returns Oct. 6-10, 2025! This week is an opportunity to showcase and celebrate the efforts and contributions of our institution's research community: the faculty, students and staff who help make the world better through their scholarly work. It's also an opportunity for us to recognize some of the organizations and individuals that help make that research possible: our funders and partners in government, industry and community.
