Office of Research & Scholarship
The Office of Research and Scholarship is the interface between our researchers, our funders and a research partners. We are responsible for ensuring the highest standards of ethical research, fiscal responsibility in research, integrity on research and compliance with external regulations and internal policies. We also are the home of all research contracts as well as a number of faculty and student research awards.
The Office of Research and Scholarship offers services to our research community ranging from education on the basics of research funding applications to creating complex multi-institutional partnerships. Based out of the Coast Capital Library on the Surrey Campus we are home to the Research Ethics Board (a requirement for studies involving human participants), the Katalyst Grant program, and Student-Led Research Awards. Our staff can offer advice, and interpretations, on almost all aspects of research; be it from the very earliest idea through to commercialization of KPU intellectual property.
Students are encouraged to discuss research with their faculty supervisor and contact the office with any questions.
