The UBC Public Scholars Initiative (PSI) supports doctoral students in connecting their research to real-world public benefit while incorporating broader and career-relevant scholarship into their studies. PSI offers up to $20,000 in funding ($10,000 twice) for innovative and collaborative research projects, supporting doctoral students from all faculties and departments at UBC, as well as over 30 hours of workshops and trainings, and personalized support for scholars pursuing public scholarship work.
This information session will provide detailed information about the funding process, eligibility, and examples of successful projects. Don’t miss this chance to learn about this unique opportunity, ask questions about the initiative—and enjoy a free lunch while you’re here!
