The Northern Alberta Institute of Technology is kicking off the academic year with a new academic structure that is composed of seven academic schools, an increase from the four that were established eight years ago. With this new structure, NAIT’s schools are organized in alignment with the sectors they support. By “mimicking the collaboration and engagement that happens on a worksite, we get a better outcome overall,” said NAIT VP Academic Peter Leclair. NAIT’s seven schools are the JR Shaw School of Business, School of Construction and Building Sciences, School of Energy and Natural Resources, School of Health and Life Sciences, School of Manufacturing and Automation, School of Media and Information Technology, and School of Transportation.
