Industrial partners are limited to two Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC) Engage grants awarded per fiscal year (April 1-March 31). This includes the company’s combined “Engage Grant for Universities” and “Engage Grant for Colleges” participation for that year. This includes both VIP-Engage or standalone Engage projects.

Partners providing cash contributions to ongoing NSERC-funded projects outside of Engage will be allowed up to two additional Engage applications per year.
