Project Funding

The Applied Research Liaison Office (ARLO) monitors research funding opportunities for BCIT individuals conducting research:

• The funding calendar lists upcoming deadlines for external funding programs, with links to the programs.
• The Applied Research blog has updates on new funding opportunities and news from funding agencies.
• There is a database (sources) of major research sponsors and organizations and the programs they fund.
•  September 2014 presentation on External Funding Opportunities for Researchers at BCIT.

ARLO also regularly publicizes information about research funding opportunities via email to internal research committees and individual researchers.
