Nunavut Arctic College

Nunavut Arctic College has a strong commitment to provide high quality educational opportunities to all residents of Nunavut. The College has five campuses: Nunatta Campus, including Piqqusilirivvik in Clyde River, the Nunavut Research Institute Science Campus in Iqaluit, Kivalliq Campus and the Nunavut Trades Training Centre in Rankin Inlet and the Kitikmeot Campus, located in Cambridge Bay. Community Learning Centres located all 25 communities of Nunavut bring our programs home to people throughout the territory. These Centres are a doorway to a wider world of learning opportunities. The Nunavut Research Institute, a division of the College, is mandated to identify community needs for research and technology and act as the science advisor to the Government of Nunavut. The Institute also supports College researchers and seeks to promote and preserve the use of traditional Inuit knowledge and technology. Licenses for field research are also issued by the Institute. Each year about one hundred and fifty licenses are issued for a wide range of studies, with support for field work being made available by the Institute’s centres in Iqaluit, Igloolik, Cambridge Bay, Arviat and Rankin Inlet.
