In 2015, Schulich faculty members were awarded $3 million in research funding. The school is home to 28 funded research chairs and professorships and Schulich’s Centres of Excellence are a vital source of cutting-edge research.
The poster gallery viewing, where researchers will be available to answer questions about their work will be held in the CIBC Marketplace at Schulich from 12:30-2pm on Jan. 26.

The Dean’s Research Impact Awards, which include a $5,000 prize, will be presented at 3:30 p.m. The Lifetime Achievement Award will recognize a researcher’s achievement of true distinction in his or her research field, integrity and ability to inspire alumni, faculty, staff, students, and the research community. The Emerging Leader Award will recognize a researcher’s remarkable professional and research accomplishments and demonstrated a commitment to fostering relationships, research community-building and advancing Schulich’s international reputation for research excellence.
