General information

About the grants

Read the grants description before you complete the application.

Who completes the application?

Information from the following individuals is required to complete the Mobilize grants application in the  Convergence Portal.

Primary applicant:
Like all grants under the College and Community Innovation (CCI) program, Mobilize grants are for the institution, rather than an individual. Therefore, the applicant is normally a senior manager in the college’s administration who is delegated by the college president to create, prepare and complete the application with all required documentation and to manage the grant. The applicant should not be the college’s research grants officer.

Participants:
Participants are typically faculty or professional/technical staff from the college and/or from another eligible college who will contribute to the research activities.

Contributors (optional):
Contributors edit the application and typically help the applicant complete the application, but they do not contribute to research activities. Therefore, their information is not captured in the application.

Collaborators (optional):
Collaborators are members of the research team not affiliated with the college (e.g., partner staff or university faculty) who bring their own resources to the collaboration and do not have access to the grant funds. Collaborators are expected to contribute to the overall intellectual direction of the research project and/or play a key role in the conduct of the research and related activities.

Who approves and submits the application?

The research grants officer (RGO) is the designated institutional liaison officer. This role is called Research Administrator in Convergence, and they approve and submit the grant application on behalf of the college.

Whom should I contact for help?

• For program-related information, contact colleges@nserc-crsng.gc.ca.
• For matters related to Convergence, email websupport@convergence.gc.ca or call 613-995-4273.

Other expenditures

If applicable, add any other expenditures related to direct costs of research not listed above in this section. Add headings to indicate the type of expenditure.

Total support from the college

Indicate the cash amount the college will directly invest to fund the operational requirements of the Mobilize grant activities. The cash must go into an account that the college uses for the purposes of the grant, as set out in the budget in the grant application. NSERC may request that the college complete a form 301 to confirm that the cash was provided and that the funds were used for the purposes of the grant.

Overhead and administration

Overhead and administration costs equivalent to 20% of the annual grant amount are automatically calculated in the budget table. Overhead and administration expenditures eligible under the  Research Support Fund are eligible under Mobilize grants.

Provide general information on the overhead and administration costs attributable to the grant. If applicable, provide information on the costs of specific activities supporting EDI in the research and training environment.

Metrics table

This section collects information on specific applied research and training metrics for the college as a whole to measure the level of partner-focused applied research activities across the research programs of the college. Do not include institutional research data or activities related to the college’s education research programs.

Download the metrics table template from Convergence and provide metrics on the college’s past and future applied research activities and partnerships. These data should support the past accomplishments and future goals of the college, as described in the Research proposal section of the application. NSERC recognizes that the future metrics provided in the table are best estimates based on the anticipated direction of the college’s research programs.

Please read the metrics table guidelines below carefully before completing the table. The application also allows you to add a two-page-maximum metrics description attachment to explain any assumptions and provide context for the metrics.

Colleges can choose the time period they wish to cover for the average compilation of the past three years. Typically, colleges would choose the previous three fiscal years for which they have complete data. However, if they have substantial data for a current year that is almost completed, they may wish to include that year. They should indicate in the two-page metrics description which fiscal years are included (e.g., 2020–21 to 2022–23).

The five years should begin with the start date (July following the competition) of the Mobilize grant you are applying for and should end five years after the start date.

Do not alter the template (font type and size, etc.). Sign at the bottom, save the completed table and upload it to Convergence. Once it is signed, the completed metrics table will be locked and cannot be changed. If you wish to make additional changes, remove the signature, edit the table and add the signature again when the table is finalized.
