Application Details: |
NCE funding will be awarded following a national competitive process in two stages:
1. Applicants applying for NCE funding to establish a new network are invited to submit Letters of Intent. Based on a review of the LOI, selected applicants will be invited to Stage 2.
2. Applicants advancing to Stage 2 will be asked to develop and submit Full applications.
A Selection Committee will Review Letters of Intent according to the five published NCE Program criteria, relevance to the NCE Program goals and objectives and the relevance to the target research area. This Committee will recommend applicants to receive invitations to submit Full Applications.
LOIs should be submitted on behalf of the proposed Network by an academic researcher (i.e., the applicants, who is also the proposed Scientific Director for the Network) who is eligible to receive funding from one of the three federal granting agencies, and by the proposed host institution. Eligible recipients must meet the general eligibility requirements of one or more of the three federal granting agencies partnering in the Program.The deadline for the electronic submission of the LOI for the 2015 NCE Network Competition is August 1, 2013. LOIs must be received by the NCE Secretariat by 4:30 p.m. local time.
Applications must be submitted to the NCE on-line electronic application system at https://excellence.nce-rce.gc.ca.
Applicants must also provide the NCE Secretariat with one unbound original copy by August 9, 2013, containing the original signatures. The unbound copy must be identical to the electronic submission. Inclusion of additional material in the unbound copy will result in the rejection of your application from the competition.
