Support for Social Sciences & Humanities Research
SFU works to ensure that scholarly endeavours in the social sciences and humanities be supported through SSHRC small grants and travel grants, SSHRC 4A grants, university publication grants, and the provision of library resources.
To increase participation in programs for major projects such as SSHRC's Partnership/Partnership Development and Insight/Insight Development, as well as in social science research funded by the different provincial and federal ministries, support for grant preparation and administration is provided.
In addition, the Vice-President, Research has instituted an internal Ph.D. graduate scholarship program for students in the Humanities, funded from the Community Trust Endowment Fund, and a program for undergraduate research assistants from the Vice-President, Research budget.
