Funding, News and Announcements

Is promoting science your passion? Take advantage of the following great opportunities from the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC).

Nominate an individual or a group for an NSERC Award for Science Promotion. The nomination deadline is September 1, 2015. (Note: self-nominations are no longer accepted.)

Apply for an NSERC PromoScience Grant. The application deadline is September 15, 2015.

In addition to continuing to accept applications that promote the natural sciences and engineering to Canada’s young people in general, NSERC is issuing a targeted call for applications that focus on girls and/or Aboriginal youth–groups that are traditionally under-represented in scientific and engineering careers–and expects to support an increased percentage of applications in this area.
