Wendy Ryan from NSERC's Research Partnerships Directorate will be visiting both the Downtown Campus and Macdonald Campus of McGill University on Tuesday, February 10th.  She will provide information and advice about the upcoming Strategic Projects Program competition (deadline April 15, 2009) and some of the new initiatives that have received increased funding recently (e.g. manufacturing sector, forest sector etc). The sessions will cover the specific requirements for the Partnerships Programs, including the Collaborative Research & Development (CRD) and Strategic Networks (SNG) Program and provide guidance on improving researchers' chances of success in these competitions.

Due to the competitive nature of the Strategic Projects Program as well as the complexity of the application process, researchers interested in submitting applications to this year's Strategic Projects competition are strongly encouraged to attend one of these information sessions.
