不良研究所

Internal Review Process

不良研究所

All nominations are assessed by the Standing Internal Review Committee (SIRC) with expertise in the nominee鈥檚 field (i.e., CIHR, NSERC, SSHRC). This is the same committee that reviews CRC nominations in the current academic term. The current membership is available here.

The SIRC will make a recommendation to the Provost and Executive Vice-President (Academic) who shall consider this recommendation to reach a final decision about granting or renewing an award.

Criteria for evaluation include:

  • the nominee鈥檚 record of research dissemination and impact;
  • HQP training record; and
  • promise for sustained success and growth as a top-tier researcher in the nominee鈥檚 discipline.

  • is carrying out a program of research that is producing leading-edge results that are making a significant impact at the international level.

The file must demonstrate that the nominee:

  • is developing into an outstanding and original researcher of world-class caliber who is poised to become a leader in his or her field.

The SIRC will assess applications where candidates have had leaves causing career interruptions, accounting for the candidate鈥檚 career stage. Safeguards will be in place to ensure this information is considered equitably and treated confidentially.

Award decisions are typically communicated to nominees and their Department Chair/Director and Dean by mid-April of each year.
