The Petro Canada – McMaster University Young Innovator Award 

A program that provides an opportunity to build on the connection between research and teaching by engaging undergraduate students in research. This Award is unique in that it recognizes the research achievements of an innovative scholar within the first eight years of his or her research career, and provides funding support to the scholar to enable the active participation of undergraduates in the research endeavour. This award provides a means for the University to encourage creative thinking about how undergraduate students might participate in university research, to learn how undergraduate education might benefit from research, and to provide, over time, several innovative working models of active student involvement in university research.

The Award consists of:

• Campus-wide recognition for innovative research achievement by a new faculty member and
• $25,000 support towards a project to actively involve undergraduate students in research.

Applications for 2018 are due to the Dean’s Office in the candidate’s Faculty by Friday, April 13, 2018.
