(For CUHK and U of T faculty)

Deadline: 10:59 EST / 23:59 HK, 31st March 2025, Monday

The University of Toronto (U of T) and The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) continue to develop their strategic partnership and offer opportunities for research collaboration and engagement through a joint call for proposals aligned with their institutional priorities, complementary strengths, and track record of cooperation.

It is hoped that, besides tangible academic outcomes such as the exchange and co-supervision of PhD students and submission of co-authored publications, projects will result in long-lasting, substantial collaborations with a view to enabling principal investigators (PIs) to subsequently apply for external funding to support the next phase of their joint research.

The fund is open for applications from all research areas and up to 5 proposals will be selected for funding.
