Postdoctoral fellows

Postdoctoral fellowships from outside agencies

There are several Canadian and international agencies and foundations that can fund postdoctoral research at uOttawa. These include the three federal granting agencies: the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR), the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC), and the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC).

Consult the table which provides links to these sources of funding. Naturally, foreign nationals would benefit from checking first with agencies and foundations in their home country.
