NSERC-National Science and Technology Council of Taiwan (NSTC) call for proposals on semiconductors and artificial intelligence

March 25, 2026

Value

Up to CAN$1M, with a maximum of CAN$225,000 per three-year project (annual maximum of CAN$75,000).

Description

This call aims to promote collaborative research projects that address fundamental challenges and explore cutting-edge applications at the intersection of semiconductors and artificial intelligence.

Eligible Applicants

If you are a Canadian university researcher eligible to receive NSERC funds, you can apply independently or as a team with co-applicants who are also eligible academic researchers. You must include at least one academic collaborator from Taiwan who meets NSTC eligibility requirements. NSERC will internally review the eligibility of the Canadian researchers, and NSTC will review the eligibility of the Taiwan-based collaborator(s).

Eligible Expenses

All Canadian expenditures are subject to the principles and directives governing the appropriate use of grant funds outlined in the Tri-agency Guide on Financial Administration. You must include only NSERC-eligible direct costs of research in the budget submitted to NSERC. The funds from NSERC must be paid to eligible Canadian universities and cannot be used to buy equipment, products or services from, or on behalf of, any collaborating organization.

You can only include NSERC-eligible direct costs of research in your project budget, such as:

  • salary support for research trainees (undergraduates, graduates and postdoctoral trainees) to perform research and related training
  • salary support for technicians and research professional personnel
  • materials and supplies
  • activities that support collaborations and knowledge mobilization related to the project
  • activities to develop and grow the research collaborations with the Taiwan-based collaborator(s)

You can also include the costs of equipment, provided that the equipment is:

  • essential to achieving the objectives of the research project
  • incremental to the equipment already available at the university or to your Taiwan-based collaborator(s)
  • within a total expected equipment cost that does not exceed 30% of the total Canadian grant budget
