Tri-Agency Funding for Exceptional Students

The Tri-Agency grants include three funding agencies: Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR), the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council (NSERC), and the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC). The Tri-Agency grants are designed to support and promote high-quality research in a wide variety of disciplines and areas. This year six PhD trainees in the School of Health and Exercise students were awarded funding to pursue their research at UBC Okanagan.
