About GLIER

Our analytical expertise, graduate environmental science programs, central training facilities, and strategic location combined have put us on the map.

GLIER researchers are currently assessing the impact of multiple stressors on large lakes and their watersheds worldwide.

Students in GLIER's graduate program work closely with faculty in conducting innovative multidisciplinary research and preparing for careers in universities, industry and government service.

GLIER researchers collaborate extensively with colleagues elsewhere in the world.

GLIER’s 5 200 square metre, tri-level, dedicated central facility on the Detroit River is without parallel in Canada.
