2) NSERC Alliance Grants Option 2 Now Open

We are pleased to announce that option 2 of Alliance grants is now open and accepting applications.

During this initial phase, applications requesting over $30,000 and up to $100,000 per year will be accepted, and the number of applications each applicant (as principal investigator or as co-applicant) may submit will be limited to one within a 12-month period.

Alliance option 2 applications will be evaluated in two stages. Full applications will be submitted to a multidisciplinary and multisectoral selection committee that will assess whether a higher NSERC contribution is justified. The selection committee will meet on a quarterly basis, starting in the Spring. If selected, applications will then proceed to the second step for review of overall merit, similar to option 1.

For full details about Alliance grants and how to apply, please visit the Alliance webpage and the Frequently Asked Questions webpage.
