NSERC Discovery Grant

Program Description

The Discovery Grants Program supports ongoing programs of research with long-term goals rather than a single short-term project or collection of projects. These grants recognize the creativity and innovation that are at the heart of all research advances. Discovery Grants are considered grants in aid of research, as they provide long term operating funds and can facilitate access to funding from other programs, but are not meant to support the full costs of a research program. For the full application, ORS must forward your application to the agency before the agency deadline. For the NOI, applicants submit directly to NSERC.
