FROM THE DEaN
Dear students, faculty and staff,
Exams are over! Some of our students will spend the
summer months preparing for team competitions, thinking
about going on exchange or gaining valuable work
experience in academia or industry. In a pilot initiative -
made possible through the Dean’s Research Fund (DRF)
- eighteen deserving students have been selected for
research experiences with our professors. The students
will conduct research for 14 consecutive weeks over the
summer as part of the DRF - Undergraduate Research
Experience (URE) Competition. Designed to inspire our
promising third year students to pursue graduate studies and
a career in research, we look forward to sharing the outcome
of this program with you in a future newsletter.
For our researchers, grant results and research next
steps are top of mind. Classes are over, NSERC results
are published and the Dean’s Research Fund – booster,
connector and travel grant competitions are now closed.
DRF-tools results will be released shortly. Congratulations to
all of the FEAS faculty who participated in the 2015 round of
NSERC and DRF competitions.
My first academic year as Dean of the Faculty has gone
by quickly. I am thankful to all of the staff, students and
faculty for making it such a rewarding first year. I wish you a
productive and enjoyable “break”.
Summer is coming!

2015 Dean’s Research Fund
The Research and Innovation Office (RiO) in the Faculty of
Engineering and Architectural Science offers competitive
research grants up to $10,000 through two types of awards,
the DRF-Booster and the DRF-Connector.
The DRF-Booster is awarded to select researchers who
submitted a highly rated, yet unsuccessful, research grant
application to a recent external competition. Applicants must
demonstrate how the fund will help their research proposals
achieve success.

4. The DRF-Connector is awarded to select researchers to
help them develop new external industry partnerships that
will lead to the recipient successfully applying for a large
team grant through external agencies, such as tri-council,
OCE, and MITACS.
