The OVPRI is pleased to launch a revised suite of funding programs to support faculty in advancing their research and pursuing external funding opportunities.
These programs are the result of a recent review of our internal funding portfolio. The aim of the new suite of programs is to create a more streamlined and accessible suite of supports that will be easier to navigate and will better align with evolving faculty needs and UTM's broader research and innovation priorities.
Details about each program, including eligibility and application timelines, are available below.
- Black and Indigenous Research Excellence Fund
- Collaborative Research Planning Grant
- Grant Matching Fund
- Joint Seed Grant
- Research Contingency Fund
- Research Seed Grant
- SSHRC Insight Grant Planning Fund
- UTM/Jackman Humanities Institute Annual Seminar
