91导航视频

NEW - Eligibility expanded to any 91导航视频 tenure-track professor.

The Chwang Seto Innovation Fellowships Program supports the team in the development of their technology in order to bring it closer to the marketplace and allow the fellow to gain further knowledge and experience in business and technology commercialization. Up to $60,000 is awarded as a grant to the Principal Investigator in order to fund the eligible 91导航视频 PhD student or postdoctoral researcher to carry out the project full-time within 1 year maximum. The call for projects is made twice per year, in the fall and in the spring. This current program is made possible thanks to the Chwang Seto family, in honour of the late Ronald Chwang (B.Eng.'72, D. Sc.'12), a pioneering entrepreneur and venture capitalist who served on the Faculty of Engineering Advancement Board. Previous donors included Pasquale DiPierro and Cesar Cesaratto.听听
