Grant Overview

Nova Scotia's marine industry is a significant economic driver, with a strong focus on fishing and aquaculture. However, the province faces a capacity gap in providing students with the mathematical skills required for careers in this sector. The proposed marine mathematics training program aims to address this gap by providing students with hands-on workshops and mentorship from industry professionals. The program will focus on educating students on the mathematical concepts relevant to the marine industry, with a particular emphasis on practical skills and knowledge. To be successful, the program will need to build on existing infrastructure and workforce capacity in the province's marine industry. Unlike New Brunswick, Nova Scotia's program will prioritize the development of industry-specific mathematical content that caters to the province's distinct marine sector needs. The program will be implemented in partnership with industry stakeholders, ensuring that the mathematical content is relevant and applicable to real-world problems. Geographic anchors include the coastal communities along the province's shoreline, while economic anchors involve the fishing and aquaculture industries. Infrastructure-wise, the program will build on existing facilities and equipment in the marine industry. Demographically, the program will focus on the province's youth population, with a particular emphasis on those interested in pursuing careers in the marine sector. ## Capacity Building for Marine Mathematics in Nova Scotia ## The program will invest in building the capacity of educational institutions to deliver marine mathematics training, ensuring that students are equipped with the practical skills and knowledge required for careers in the marine industry. ## Industry Partnerships in Nova Scotia's Marine Sector ## The program will be implemented in partnership with industry stakeholders, ensuring that the mathematical content is relevant and applicable to real-world problems in the marine industry.
