| CRIMT – A Unique Learning Environment Why not become a CRIMT student researcher? One of CRIMT’s major objectives is to provide a stimulating learning environment for graduate students. Within the collaborative research network provided by our major structuring grants from the SSHRC and FQRSC in Canada, we want our students to be at the leading edge of interdisciplinary and international enquiry so that they are part of a new generation of scholars and practitioners involved in scientifically innovative and policy relevant research on work and employment. In order to attain this objective and ensure that graduate students are an integral part of our larger research team, we offer a variety of innovative programs to support student research training. Many of these are detailed in the links highlighted on this page. They include: (1) a studentship program to provide a monthly stipend of leveraged support for student projects contributing to our overall scientific program (over a million dollars have been attributed to students involved in our SSHRC-MCRI Project); (2) an international exchange fund, which supports students wanting to spend time in different affiliated institutions or to undertake periods of fieldwork in other national contexts (twelve students have sop far beneficiated from that program!); (3) a summer school bringing together graduate students to discuss common research issues and challenges with renown scholars in our field. CRIMT students also participate in a wide variety of research seminars, symposia and other activities organized by the Centre. CRIMT students can also use the communications and networking facilities offered by this website to exchange on common research concerns. How do you become a CRIMT student researcher? First off, you must be registered or admitted to a graduate program (MA or PhD) in a CRIMT affiliated institution. These institutions include our core institutional affiliates at Université de Montréal, Université Laval and HEC Montréal in programs such as industrial relations, law, human resource management, sociology of work, gender studies and management, but they also extend to a wide range of other programs of which CRIMT co-researchers are a part. These include graduate programs elsewhere in Canada (for example, labour studies at McMaster or industrial relations at Queen’s) as well as internationally in a number of other countries (France, Mexico, Australia, the United Kingdom and the United States, to name but a few). Please check the list of CRIMT co-researchers linked to our projects to explore the wide range of possible programs in which you could be registered. Second, your supervisor or co-supervisor must be a CRIMT co-researcher, i.e., a researcher who is actively involved in one of the CRIMT-related projects, and must sponsor you to become a CRIMT student. For that to happen, your particular MA or PhD research project must be part of one of those larger CRIMT-related projects detailed in the CRIMT research matrix. In other words, this is a fantastic opportunity to ensure that your research training is an integral part of a much larger and very stimulating research program If you are already a CRIMT student researcher, please check this and other pages on a regular basis to keep up to date on new research initiatives, seminars and programs. If you would like to become a CRIMT student researcher, please get in touch with us and our co-researchers, tell us about your research interests and check out the admission requirements for our various affiliated graduate programs. These may well be the first steps to an exciting new way of doing your graduate training.
