Ship Time Program
Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC)
In recognition of the high costs associated with chartering research vessels in Canada and abroad, the Ship Time program allows those holding an NSERC Discovery Grant (DG) to apply for additional funds to access vessels in support of their research programs.
The normal duration of Ship Time grants is one year. Two-year grants will be considered in exceptional circumstances, where the project completion requires a firm commitment of funding for more than one year.
These grants are applied for using the NSERC Online System using a Form 101 (application module) and NSERC CCV (personal module).
