mitacs accelerate program
Mitacs Accelerate supports collaborative research between graduate students or postdoctoral fellows, a faculty supervisor, and a nonacademic partner. You receive a stipend that starts at $10,000, gain experience beyond your university, and increase your employability and professional networks. MITACS and the participating organization will contribute $7,500 each to the successful applicant. Placements are for 4 months, with the student spending 50% of their time at the partner organization and 50% at the research institution under the guidance of their supervisor.
MITACS is an independent internship program but can be undertaken in conjunction with the BRITE program if appropriate.
