Pouty_Scouty Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 (edited) So I have a silly question: If one does get an NSERC, are they able to keep smaller departmental awards (less than $10 k per year) and research assistantships? Or do they have to decline those? Edited April 16, 2021 by Pouty_Scouty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

illuminatice Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 Word on the street is that my department at UofT has received the list of winners from NSERC.

I keep checked my email/twitter every 15 mins to see. Definitely taking over too much mental space. I am currently working on field prep/planning (which may not happen) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
