About Quanser

Quanser is a world leader in the design and development of cutting-edge solutions that form an interdisciplinary ecosystem for engineering education and research.

From the beginning, we have been committed to the success of our customers. We have developed and pursued the following guiding principles to continue to meet that commitment. They are the focus of everything we do and, ultimately, what we’re all about.

Apply 35+ Years of Academic Partnership

Quanser grew out of academia to transform educational experiences

Quanser was founded by an engineering professor, Dr. Jacob Apkarian, in search of the right tools to improve his teaching and student outcomes. Ever since, we have participated in and partnered with the global academic community to understand the needs of educators, researchers and educational institutions.

Enable Innovative Pedagogy

New tools for teaching promote new ways of teaching

From experiential learning to flipped classrooms and digital twinning, we have turnkey solutions that can increase efficacy, improve outcomes and raise the profile of the course, program and institution.

Facilitate Modern Learning Outcomes

Progressive capacity without constant content and resource development

In-demand skill sets are constantly evolving. With academically-appropriate products supported by courseware and instructor resources, Quanser offers a streamlined, reliable means to keep institutions at the forefront of student skill development.

Bring Theory to Life

Create a catalyst for learning

Our platforms highlight the similarities and differences in how something theoretically should work and how it really works. Students experience invaluable “aha! moments” as they see the theory they’ve been learning come to life. Researchers can easily transition their theories for validation on physical systems.

Accelerate Innovative Research

Smooth the path for breakthrough research

We remove the hurdles. We free up the time and resources of our customers and users so they can focus on the type of work that really matters. Turn-key solutions, training resources, and customer support help move research forward.

Maximizing the Value of Academic Investment

Multi-year, multi-disciplinary, multi-purpose platforms

Our platforms are designed around hardware and software that promotes open-architecture control, customizability, scalability, and interoperability to give our systems the capacity to grow over time to support multiple courses, departments, and generations of undergraduate and graduate students.

Empower Transformation

Expand labs, courses or entire programs

We understand that having the resources and support to redefine the educational philosophy of an institution or program can be a challenge. No matter the scale of the vision, we have helped our customers achieve their goals, whether to update a lab, overhaul a course, redefine the first-year experience, or commission a system-wide programmatic redesign.

Our Vision

Quanser partners with universities around the world to develop engineering platforms that accelerate research and transform educational experiences.

Our Mission

For every engineering program in the world, we strive to bring theory to life using innovative technologies to inspire and empower insightful discovery.
