With spring finally in the air and the new fiscal year upon us, it's time once again to share with you highlights from SSHRC's most recent competition cycle.

In 2014-15, SSHRC received over 13,500 funding applications and granted 4,100 new awards. The painstaking process of adjudicating those applications involved nearly 5,000 external assessments.
