Funding, News and Announcements

Mitacs Globalink Research Awards (GRAs) help faculty and students deepen the research links between Canadian and international educational institutions. Dalhousie faculty in any discipline may submit applications in support of their senior undergraduate students, graduate students or postdoctoral fellows, or to host visiting students.

Awards will be made to students in support of 12- to 24-week research project placements at Dalhousie or in select counties abroad. These awards provide $6,000 in funding for research costs, student stipend, and travel/living expenses. Incoming and outgoing applicants must secure a Dalhousie faculty member as their home/host supervisor prior to applying.

Full details of these awards are available here.

Applications will be accepted on an ongoing basis by Mitacs, but applicants are strongly encouraged to submit their application at least 4 months in advance of when they plan to travel.

Any Dalhousie faculty member interested in this opportunity is asked to contact Gailene Tobin Vandenheuvel (gvandenheuvel@mitacs.ca) for more information and support in developing an application.
