At SFU Research Matters, it’s an essential component of SFU’s mission, and also a major instructional activity as faculty work closely with graduate and undergraduate students in a wide variety of research settings including the Library, laboratories, computer facilities, and studios. Research collaborations extend far beyond our campuses to include many projects conducted jointly with business and industry, community organizations and agencies in all levels of government.
With grants totaling more than $60 million, SFU researchers are establishing or strengthening programs in areas facing the most pressing social demand, including international studies, urban growth management, public policy analysis, and health science.

SFU Library developed an award-winning open-source software suite, reSearcher, which allows faculty and students to search simultaneously a variety of online resources, display the results, pull up online articles which reSearcher retrieves behind the scenes, and submit requests for paper copies. Universities across Canada, India, the Netherlands, Denmark, the U.S., New Zealand and Hong Kong have already adopted reSearcher.
