CANADIAN STUDIES DOCTORAL STUDENT RESEARCH AWARD

Length: One year

The Doctoral Student Research Award promotes research that contributes to a better knowledge and understanding of Canada, its relationship with the United States, and its international affairs. The grant is designed to give doctoral students an opportunity to conduct part of their research in Canada. We welcome efforts to integrate the research findings into the applicant's conference presentations.

We support projects representing a wide range of disciplines in the social sciences and humanities (see list of recent grant awards: http://www.canadainternational.gc.ca/washington/studies-etudes/recipients-destinaires.aspx?lang=eng#doctoral-doctorat). We are particularly interested in projects that focus on policy, especially in these priority areas: North American economic competitiveness, energy and environment, security, and Arctic issues. 

Applications will be considered in accordance with the procedures, guidelines and conditions described below. Over the past three years, applicants have had a 24 percent success rate.
