Centres and Groups

TRU has dedicated resources to a number of research centres, which operate as research hubs, offering faculty members opportunities to work collaboratively across disciplines on the areas of shared interest.

If you are interested in establishing an official group or centre, please first familiarize yourself with TRU's policy and guidelines.

All My Relations

The mission of the AMR Research Centre is to advance Indigenous community wellness by bringing together regional, national, and international Indigenous researchers to work in partnership with Indigenous communities to identify, research, advance and build capacity and capability in Indigenous community wellness.

Centre for Optimization and Data Science

Contact: Dr. Roger Yu
The Centre for Optimization and Data Science at Thompson Rivers University is an intellectual hub to foster multi-disciplinary research at TRU and to encourage collaboration among faculty members, not only in the theoretical study of optimization and data science, as well as applications to real-world problems. In addition CODS works with public and private sector to establish mathematical models for their operations in order to develop optimal solutions.

Institute for Wildfire Science, Resiliency, and Adaption

Contact: wildfire@tru.ca
Thompson Rivers University (TRU) and the BC Wildfire Service (BCWS) are leading the future of fire management. Wildfire concerns are growing with extreme fire behaviour and fire activity becoming the norm. A different approach is critical to address this new reality. In partnership, TRU and BCWS have worked side-by-side on a solutions-focused and comprehensive approach to current and future wildfire challenges. We call this TRU Wildfire. TRU Wildfire brings together and links four key areas — research, education, training and innovation. Through these, society will be in a better position to prevent, prepare for and respond to wildfire.

 


Faculty interested in establishing a centre should follow the procedures outlined in the relevant TRU Policies.
