Each member of the student committee ensures an active presence within your research institution, to encourage social and scientific life and a sense of belonging to the CRIR. They are your representatives to the CRIR’s scientific direction on various committees and organize training workshops as well as social and scientific activities for you to network between students and researchers from various disciplines, several educational institutions and numerous CRIR research sites.
You will be invited to meet them at the first fall student activity, the Welcome Day for New Students, which precedes the Annual General Meeting of all CRIR students. Stay tuned, the official invitation will be sent to you soon.
Until then, we invite you to contact the person representing your axis or research site to share your ideas and get involved in the student life at your research centre.
Happy back-to-school everyone!
The Scientific Direction of the CRIR and the Institut universitaire sur la réadaptation en déficience physique de Montréal (IURDPM).
