U-Multirank's unique 'Sunburst chart' gives an illustration of a university's performance profile across the five U-Multirank dimensions. These are indicated in different colours. For instance, the teaching and learning dimension is symbolised by the colour green. Each 'sunray' represents one of the thirty plus U-Multirank indicators. The longer the ray, the better the performance of an institution on the selected indicator: a full-length ray stands for 'top group' performance, whereas a short ray means 'weak' performance. A missing sunray indicates that the specific data indicator is not available. An institution's performance in an indicator can be identified by moving the cursor over the rays. A key guard for the sunburst chart is provided here .

Chemistry research is interdisciplinary in nature. Each of our faculty have unique interests and research programs that span many research areas. During a course of study, students focus on a specific topic with our faculty using techniques from many of the classical areas of chemistry such as organic, inorganic, physical and analytical. This approach provides a background and understanding of how to solve problems in a wholistic manner. Major research areas: Energy Synthesis Chemical Physics/Computing Biomedical/Natural Products Materials Chemistry

At the University of New Brunswick this program is delivered collaboratively by the Department of Civil Engineering and the Department of Earth Sciences. Geological engineers play key roles in the exploration, protection, and responsible development of Earth’s natural resources. They also ensure that structures such as bridges, dams and buildings are designed for long-term stability and safety, taking current and future geologic conditions and hazards into account.

The Master of Computer Science (MCS) program provides students with an opportunity to explore advanced knowledge in computer science. The balance between courses and research can follow one of two options: -master's with thesis, which requires fewer courses and has a more substantial research project -master's with report, which includes more courses and a limited research component A co-op option can be added to the MCS program. The co-op option incorporates eight to 12 months of work terms.
