As for total research funding (from both public and non-government sources), the University of Ottawa also makes the country's top ten, ranking eighth, a climb from 10th place in last year’s rankings. In its Vision 2010 strategic planning exercise, the University set out to increase its research activity with the ultimate aim of joining the ranks of Canada's five best universities. "Achieving that objective is essential in securing the University's reputation as a national leader, and it's also how we can fulfill our mission as a creator of knowledge and our role as a socially responsible institution," says University of Ottawa president Gilles Patry.
