Tech Futures' academic programs offer a broad range of support to researchers at all stages of their careers, from graduate students to the world’s top researchers.

The design of the academic programs is based on a combination of programs from Alberta Ingenuity and iCORE heritage organizations, aligning with the Alberta Innovates mandate.
