The Queen's University Vice-Principal Research (VPR) Postdoctoral Fund aims to attract outstanding postdoctoral fellows (PDFs) to Queen’s University and foster greater recognition of trainees as research leaders of the future. Support for PDFs and their contribution to research is an objective of the University’s Strategic Framework and advances research excellence at the University.
The fund provides two years of salary support for up to six (6) PDFs, per competition, who will hold a postdoctoral fellowship at Queen’s University. Each award is valued at $50,000 each year of the funding period for a total of $100,000 per recipient. Supervisors are encouraged to top up this amount to reflect market conditions.
The PhD must be complete at the start of the Postdoctoral Fellowship.
