Published purpose
The objective of this initiative is to use student rocket activities as a highly visible talent magnet to attract undergraduate students, to enhance space related discovery learning through practical hands-on instruction, and to create an exceptional learning experience and environment for undergraduate students. Ultimately, CaNoRock will attract undergraduate students and bridge them into space related graduate study or the aerospace industry. CaNoRock will leverage several funding sources to create new sounding rocket payload laboratory capability within Canadian academia.
