RESEARCH GRANT REVIEWER:

Dr. Rashid reviews grant proposals for

National Science Foundation (NSF)
National Science and Engineering Council of Canada (NSERC).
Australian Research Council (ARC)
University Grants Commission, Government of Hong Kong

RESEARCH GRANTS:

During the period from 1982 to 1989, Dr. Rashid received external funding from NSERC
(National Science and Engineering Council of Canada) and FCAR (Fonds Pour La Formation
De Chercheus Et La'Aide a La Recherche, Quebec Govt., Canada), while he had been with
Concordia University, and supported graduate students and research.

With my academic administrative responsibilities including accreditation, developing new

programs and also for the lack of graduate programs, I was focusing mostly (since 1989) on
teaching and administrative aspects rather than funded research.
