Research Impact Canada (RIC) is pleased to open the call for applications for the 2026 Engaged Scholarship Award for Graduate Students – our annual recognition of exceptional community-engaged research that drives meaningful impact.
This year (and moving forward), non-university member organizations in the RIC Network are invited to submit applications!* We’re excited to expand this opportunity and highlight the diverse contributions our members bring to collaborative research and knowledge mobilization.
The deadline to submit applications is March 1, 2026 at 11:59 PM ET.
If you’re advancing engaged scholarship that makes a difference, we encourage you to apply!
* Graduate students applying from non-university institutions must still be enrolled in a graduate program at one of RIC’s member universities.
