SSHRC Impact Awards are designed to build on and sustain Canada’s research-based knowledge culture in all research areas of the social sciences and humanities. The awards recognize outstanding researchers and celebrate their research achievements, research training, knowledge mobilization, and outreach activities funded partially or entirely by SSHRC.
Award funds are to be used for activities that promote and further develop the work being honoured. In recognition of the crucial role that postsecondary institutions play as knowledge mobilization of partners researchers, at least 10 per cent of each award must be used to promote the recipient’s research achievements. Individual recipients and their institutions may choose to devote additional funds, including a higher percentage of the award funds, to these activities.
institutions eligible to administer SSHRC funding are invited to put forward nominations in the following categories:
Gold Medal ($100,000) Talent Award ($50,000) Insight Award ($50,000) Connection Award ($50,000) Partnership Award ($50,000)
A new process has been initiated for the internal selection of candidates to be nominated by the University for prestigious external awards. This process entails the Awards Advisory Committee (AAC) reviewing several times annually a submission of preliminary nomination materials for certain external awards. Those faculty members whose files have been selected for the preparation of the University nomination for the above award will be contacted by the Office of the Vice-President (Research) for assistance in developing the final nomination package to be submitted to external bodies.
Preliminary nomination materials must be reviewed first by the Office of the Dean of HSS (see deadline below) prior to the deadline set by the AAC. Heads or individual faculty members should submit the AAC nomination template document electronically to HSS’s Secretary to the Associate Deans, Rose Frew (rmfrew@mun.ca). The template can also be obtained from Rose.
