TRIUMF

Case Study

TRIUMF is Canada’s particle accelerator centre and a national laboratory for particle and nuclear physics, accelerator science, and isotope production.

“Alumni Analyzer’s findings provided the data to clearly demonstrate to our funders and stakeholders the long-term impact of TRIUMF’s undergraduate student work program, which is one of the ways that TRIUMF enhances Canada’s pipeline of talent and future leaders.”

TRIUMF is Canada’s particle accelerator centre and a national laboratory for particle and nuclear physics, accelerator science, and isotope production. In addition to supporting thousands of students, postdoctoral researchers, and other trainees who use its facilities to conduct research, TRIUMF provides hands-on work experience through undergraduate student employment programs that immerse participants in its scientific, technical, and operational environment.

Because these experiences are an important part of TRIUMF’s contribution to developing highly qualified people for Canada’s research and innovation ecosystem, TRIUMF sought objective evidence of the career outcomes associated with this student program.

TRIUMF engaged Alumni Analyzer to examine the career trajectories of former undergraduate student employees. 

Alumni Analyzer found that former undergraduate student employees are more likely to pursue higher education in a wider range of fields, more likely to remain in Canada or return after studying abroad, and more likely to build careers in Canada’s high-tech industries. Together, these results demonstrate how investments in student training at TRIUMF contribute to strengthening Canada’s talent pipeline and innovation capacity.
