The Canadian Government provides support for teaching, research, conferences and program activities that further the knowledge and understanding of Canada in the United States. We are particularly interested in projects that focus on the diverse aspects of Canada-U.S. relations. Priority topics include bilateral trade, Canada-U.S. border issues, security cooperation, environmental and natural resources issues, and cultural relations.
In 2009-10, the Canadian Studies Grant Program provided support to faculty, researchers, and graduate students at 94 universities, colleges, and institutions in 33 states. A total of 120 projects were funded on a wide range of topics and in many disciplines.
Since 1976, the Canadian Government has helped foster the development of Canadian Studies in the United States through its grant program. There are now more than 50 Canadian Studies programs across the country and 500 U.S. universities and colleges that offer courses on Canada. Canadian Studies programmes are also prevalent in universities and colleges throughout Canada.
Grants for Canadian Studies are available from the Canada-U.S. Fulbright Program, the Association for Canadian Studies in the United States, and the International Council for Canadian Studies.
