This is great news! Not only are they increasing funding for masters, doctoral, and postdoc awards, but they’re also increasing the number awarded. We still have a ways to go when it comes to appropriate financial support for graduate students, but this is a welcome change.
NEWS RELEASE: Government of Canada announces increase in award values for federal scholarships and fellowships. Students and postdocs to receive increases as of September 1, 2024.

I am still shocked by this and can't get over the ideological gall of it all. So I haven't said much but permit me a couple of comments.
The major mechanism that federal taxes are returned to the provinces in terms of research funding is what we call tri-council funding. /1
Every year, the federal government sends hundreds of millions of dollars in grants to Alberta post-secondary institutes.
Albertans have a right to know exactly what these grants are and what they are funding.
If passed, the Provincial Priorities Act will enable us to collect that information.
I look forward to engaging with post-secondary institutes across Alberta to make sure our approval process aligns with their priorities.
📢 I’m delighted to finally announce that I received a SSHRC Insight Development Grant last year!

This summer, I’m hiring a student RA to help with data collection and initial analysis.
I’m also looking to recruit a master’s student to work on this project through our Graduate Specialization in Engineering Education (Fall 2025 start).

Hey @SSHRC_CRSH when is the embargo on announcing SSHRC IDG results going to be lifted?

Everyone told me that the first year on the tenure track is hard, but honestly I am finding the second year to be much harder in terms of time management and mental health. Is it winter break yet?

Today's the last day of my first year as a TT assistant professor. Both professional and personally, it has been a roller coaster of a year with some amazing highs and also some very challenging lows. I'm grateful for my supportive family, friends, and colleagues. 💜
