Internal
General Research Grants
General Research
Grants (GRG) are awarded by the Senate Committee on Research through
open competition. The Committee's objective in awarding the GRG funds
are: 1) to increase the number of faculty involved in research projects
needing SEED funding, 2) to increase the number and quality of applications
for research to outside funding agencies, and 3) to encourage the dissemination
of research results within the professions and the broader public. They
are financed through an Institutional Grant from SSHRC and through $4000.00
from the PDA allocation under Article 20.01.
Previous

- A discipline
or field
