The NSERC Discovery Grant (DG) Notification of Intent to Apply (NOI) is now available on the Research Portal.
Researchers who intend to apply for a DG in Fall 2021 must submit an NOI by the deadline date of Tuesday, August 3, 2021, 8:00 p.m. (ET). The NOI is mandatory when applying for a Discovery Grant. Applicants who do not submit an NOI cannot submit a full application.
Applicants are not required to submit their NOI to Research Services in advance for review and signature. However, applicants may request feedback on their NOI (optional) if submitted sufficiently in advance of the deadline; please contact Leslie Cudmore (lcudmore@upei.ca).
Please note – as previously announced by NSERC, all active Discovery Grant holders (as of the 2020-2021 fiscal year) can elect to receive a one-year extension with funds at their current funding level. Individuals with grants expiring in 2021-22 (who have not previously received the COVID-19 extension with funds) will be contacted by NSERC in the month of June with information on how to accept the funded extension. For more information on the DG extension with funds please see: https://www.nserc-crsng.gc.ca/
