NSERC Applied Research and Development Grant Workshop

NSERC Applied Research and Development Grants (ARD) are designed to give innovative Canadian companies access to the knowledge, expertise and capabilities available at Humber. They support well-defined applied research and development projects undertaken by college researchers with their private-sector partners. The mutually beneficial projects are expected to result in economic benefits to the (for-profit) company and to Canada.

Projects may range from one year to three years in duration with a maximum NSERC award of $150,000. Direct project costs are shared by the company partner(s) and the NSERC award.

Come to our workshop and discover the simplified application and decision processes that will enable funding for your applied research project. This interactive and hands-on workshop series will acquaint participants with the process of applying for ARD grants. Participants will come away from the workshops with a greater sense of confidence and an understand of what it takes to be successful.
