Applied Science is blowing the doors off almost every other field in the information revolution. If you choose the right school.

In Canada, NSAC is leading the way. Because NSAC is a University where you actually learn how to solve real problems. Science is taken out of the text books and put into the firld. And you can take the ideas in your head and put them to the test in the lab.

Your instructiors are leading researchers, so your're taught by real scientists. Classes are small enough for you to get one-on-one attention that leads to academic excellence.

At NSAC, you receivce a university education that blends theory and practice, so when you graduate, you are on the road to a careers you want.

NSAC.Science Applied to Life

There has been a debate in recent years about what a university should provide – a theoretical academic education or practical training?

NSAC believes that it should, and can, provide both. When NSAC students receive their degree, they are prepared to go on to graduate studies or to enter the workforce with real skills – skills employers are looking for.

With a 12:1 student to faculty ratio, students get individualized attention. Imagine a biochemistry class where the professor answers students’ questions one-on-one. With smaller classes, students learn the way they need to learn.

Science is too exciting to watch from the sidelines. Unlike larger schools where shortages mean students only get to watch others use scientific equipment, NSAC students actually use the latest technology themselves, hands on.

NSAC students learn to use science to solve real-world problems. They understand how science ‘lives’ in and outside the lab. They understand what a difference their skills will make to the world around them. That’s what makes NSAC graduates among the most sought-after scientific talent on the continent.

NSAC is located in Truro, Nova Scotia, a smaller university town that gives students the opportunity to study in safety and succeed academically.

“Compared to other university science grads, NSAC students have the real ‘tools in the toolbox’. They can apply their science skills right away in the real world.”
