UW & UBC Collaborative Research Mobility Award

Note: this is not a limited submission and is being announced as a courtesy only.

 

A UW-University of British Columbia Collaborative Research Awards program has been established to provide a pilot fund that facilitates research collaborations between the two universities. The objectives of this Inter-institutional Collaborative Research Award are to:

  • initiate new and strengthen existing research collaborations;
  • enable access to unique infrastructure and core facilities; and
  • provide collaborative training opportunities.

 

This pilot fund will support activities that establish or enrich research partnerships between faculty at the two institutions. Activities might include project coordination and grant writing, joint-workshops, student exchanges, and research meetings. The expectation is that activities could lead to leveraged funding, joint scholarly/research outputs, and enhanced collaborative training.  Funding cannot be used to support research per se.

 

The total funding available for this competition is $100,000 CAD from UBC and $75,000 USD from UW. The maximum value of each grant will be $20,000CAD, or $15,000 USD.

 

Researchers are invited to submit a proposal up to 3 pages (free-form), plus the Budget/ justification template, and 2-page abbreviated CV from the lead PI at each institution. Proposals must be submitted by 5:00 pm February 10, 2020.  For further details of the program please see:  https://www.washington.edu/research/resources/funding-opportunities/collaborative-research-mobility-award/
