Professor Ghaziani will join a select group of Peter Wall Institute Wall Scholars for 2014-2015. The Institute’s Wall Scholars Research Award is available to UBC Faculty members to spend one year in residence at the Peter Wall Institute, in a collaborative, interdisciplinary environment. The award selection is based primarily on the candidate’s scholarly achievements, excellence in research proposal for innovative research during residency, and the initiatives proposed to contribute to the intellectual life of the Institute. The selection committee also takes into account the candidate’s demonstrated commitment to research outside usual disciplinary boundaries. Scholars are provided with shared office space at the Peter Wall Institute, and up to $20,000 in funding. The term of the appointment for this year’s awardees will be from August 1, 2014 to July 31, 2015.
