Collaborate, Navigate & Connect

This province is full of ideas just waiting for someone to help make them happen. That’s where the Harris Centre steps in, linking Newfoundland and Labrador with the researchers, knowledge and resources at Memorial, and linking Memorial researchers with community experience and local expertise.

Together, we can move ideas to solutions and solve problems by connecting our province and our university.

You've got connections!

  • Check out our Research and Knowledge Mobilizations Networks page to learn more about the groups we’re currently working with – but be sure to connect with us and let us know more about your research area, there are always new opportunities and connections that might not be listed yet!

Community Representative? 

Whether you represent a business/industry, a community organization, government or are an interested citizen — we can help connect you with research and resources at Memorial.  

 

  • Memorial is a big university with a LOT going on, so it can be hard to know exactly which door to knock on for help with your project. We can help!
  • Let us know what projects you have underway that you’d like to connect with Memorial. We can help find researchers and resources within Memorial that can help amplify your efforts!

 

 

  • Universities are all about research, learning and sharing knowledge, and we’re always looking for issues, ideas and puzzles to solve. The Harris Centre can help put your puzzle in the right hands to help shed some light and find solutions.
  • Tell us more about what issues you’re puzzling, and we can help connect you with information and researchers at Memorial who might be able to help!

 

  • Memorial is Newfoundland and Labrador’s only university. We take our commitment to NL very seriously, and we’d like everyone here to feel connected! But sometimes it’s hard to know where to start. The Harris Centre is a great starting point – we know a little bit about a lot of things and can help you navigate and figure out what connections work for you.
