Tier 1 Canada Research Chairs (CRC) are for outstanding researchers acknowledged by their peers as world leaders in their fields. A Chair is tenable for seven years and renewable once. For each Tier 1 Chair, the institution receives $200,000 annually for seven years. Nominees for Tier 1 Chair positions must be full professors or associate professors who are expected to be promoted to the full professor level within one or two years of the nomination. Alternatively, if they come from outside the academic sector, nominees must possess the necessary qualifications to be appointed at these levels. Additional information can be found at Canada Research Chairs Program. |
