Post Secondary Research

The Commission's data holdings also include information on Research and Development (R&D) funding in the region. Over the years, MPHEC staff has used these data products to produce reports on the region's R&D environment and to provide stakeholders with province- and/or institution-specific statistics on R&D income and expenditure.
