Governance
Sentinel North's governance and management structure is designed to provide the resources and vision necessary to achieve its strategic objectives. It also ensures leadership, accountable management and scientific coordination at all levels.
Opportunities and competitions
The Sentinel North research and training strategy offers all researchers and students the chance to push their limits in a unique research and learning environment. By encouraging discovery, interdisciplinarity, innovation, collaboration and partnership, Sentinel North offers many learning and funding opportunities that all are invited to grasp.
Sentinel North Author Fund
Sharing research results—especially in open access—increases the use, application, and impact of research. To that end, Sentinel North supports its community with an Author Fund, which helps its teams cover article processing charges (APCs).
The Fund is intended to support first-author publications by graduate students and postdoctoral fellows while strengthening Sentinel North’s commitment to open access and encouraging use of the university’s CorpusUL repository.
Workshops and training activities of the Fall
This fall, Sentinel North and its partners are offering a rich program of hands-on workshops and online conferences featuring some of the most qualified experts in their field. These workshops offer everyone (students, professionals, professors) a unique opportunity to develop their skills on a wide range of topics related to northern and transdisciplinary research.
Science Communication Workshop
There’s quite a gap between doing research and talking about your research—a whole other world and language to become familiar with.
This practical interactive course aims to equip young researchers effectively disseminate their research to the general public or converse with researchers from other disciplines.
In this workshop, you will have the opportunity to:
Promote Your Research Through the Media
The media play a key role in disseminating research results and educating the general public. Behind the scenes, in preparation for media coverage, there is an interaction between scientists and journalists: people from different backgrounds who speak very different languages.
