SSHRC Connection Grant Workshop

Time: 11:30 – 1:00pm
Location: MSJ, Room 302A
Ready to mobilize your knowledge? SSHRC’s Connection Grants support events and outreach activities geared toward short-term, targeted knowledge mobilization initiatives such as workshops, colloquiums, conferences, forums, summer institutes, etc. Connection Grant funding is for one year, and there are four application deadlines throughout the year: February 1, May 1, August 1, and November 1. This workshop provides a detailed overview of SSHRC’s Connection grant, and the essentials needed to apply for this opportunity.
Dr. Steve Kleinknecht, a recipient of multiple Connection Grants over the years in both lead and co-lead applicant roles, will be on hand to answer specific questions and provide information based on his experiences with Connection grants.
Brescia English professor Dr. James Doelman, will present a lecture on his current research on unpublished manuscript funeral elegies from the Early Modern Literary period in England (17th century). Dr. Doelman is the 2015 Brescia Excellence in Research Professor, and winner of the inaugural Brescia Award for Excellence in Research. His forthcoming book, The Epigram in England: 1590-1640 published by Manchester University Press is due out later this year.
