Other International Funding/Resources – Global Research Excellence


The resources below are to help GRE applicants/awardees (i.e. York faculty):  

  • During the GRE application development stage: Consider securing additional matching funds or strategizing how they will sustain/scale the collaboration if they are funded by GRE.  The latter is required for all GRE applications.
  • GRE Post-Award: Go after additional funds from external sources to expand/deepen the collaboration
  • Identify helpful contacts/resources: For example, who should you be speaking to identify external funding opportunities, for research security, inviting visiting graduate researchers etc.
