Description: |
Mitacs-Accelerate is Canada's premiere research internship program. It connects companies with over 50 research-based universities through graduate students and postdoctoral fellows, who apply their specialized expertise to business research challenges. Interns transfer their skills from theory to real-world application, while the companies gain a competitive advantage by accessing high-quality research expertise. Under the Mitacs-Accelerate program, partner organizations can be Canadian for-profit companies, eligible not-for-profits, or an international for-profit company (contact a [BD or RO] for eligible countries). |
