Chair Allocations
The number of CRCs allocated to a university is proportional to the amount of research grant funding that university has received in the three years prior to the year of the allocation. Grant funding must originate from the three federal granting agencies (NSERC, CIHR, and SSHRC). --98.116.30.239 (talk) 22:39, 20 November 2012 (UTC) Of the total 2000 Chairs, 1880 are regular allocations, distributed as follows:
- 846 Chairs (45 per cent) for research in natural sciences and engineering;
- 658 Chairs (35 per cent) for research in health sciences;
- 376 Chairs (20 per cent) for research in social sciences and humanities.
The program sets aside a special allocation of 120 Chairs for universities that have received one per cent or less of the total funding paid out by the three federal granting agencies over the preceding three years.
Roughly 66% of Chairs are allocated to member institutions of the G13, a group of the top research-intensive universities in Canada.
