Advanced Materials and Process Engineering Laboratory
AMPEL
is a multi-disciplinary research centre with participation of
research groups from the faculties of Applied Science, Science, and
Dentistry along with strong collaborations with the Faculty of Medicine.
The main goal is to bring together basic and applied research
groups working at the forefront of research on materials and devices in a
collaborative effort sharing both their expertise and the most modern research
facilities. Next to striving for a leading position in research, the center
provides talented graduate students, post doctoral fellows and research
associates a broad range of expertise and modern research equipment.

Pacific Institute of Theoretical Physics
PITP
is an international research institute, based at the University of British Columbia
(UBC) in Vancouver, but sponsoring research networks and research collaborations
with PITP members from many countries. The PITP research activities include conferences,
workshops, and summer schools, and most importantly, short- and long-term research
projects involving the members of the PITP research networks. This research is hosted
by the PITP visitor centre, located at UBC, where groups of visiting PITP researchers
can work together and with researchers in British Columbia.

Canada's National Laboratory for Particle and Nuclear Physics
TRIUMF
is a world-class subatomic physics research laboratory located on the
campus of the University of British Columbia, a twenty-minute drive from
downtown Vancouver. TRIUMF is one of three subatomic research facilities in
the world that specialize in producing extremely intense beams of particles.
The heart of the facility is the world's biggest cyclotron, which is used to
accelerate 1000 trillion particles each second!

UBC Observatory
The UBC Telescope
sits atop the Earth & Ocean Sciences East building. It is a 42 cm telescope which is
used for public observing, undergraduate teaching and instrument development. This
instrument was obtained from Sigma Research with monies provided by the BC Science Council.
The UBC Observatory is open for public observing every clear Saturday night. Graduate
students and astronomers from the Department of Physics & Astronomy will show visitors
many celestial sights that are above the horizon (including the rings of Saturn,
craters on the Moon, Jupiter's moons, star clusters, nebulae and galaxies), which
change throughout the year.

Industry Service Office
The ISO
offers a wide variety of applied physics measurement services to BC industry.
Our service-oriented facility features diverse unique equipment, qualified researchers,
and flexible capabilities.
