Schulich Research Grant Recipients 2024-2025
Schulich’s Research Office assists Schulich faculty members in producing complete, strong, and competitive applications for research funding at the Federal, Provincial and University level. We’re happy to report that FY23-24 was one of our most successful years ever, with our faculty securing a record $1.67 million in research funding ($1,668,592.79 to be exact!) – the highest amount in our School’s history.
Our success with Tri-Council Grants over the last year continued to bear fruit and outperform national and York University averages. Big talk (we know), but, we’ll let figures speak for themselves:
