Research project

As part of his Resident Fellowship, Brant Moscovitch will investigate the presence of international students in Montreal universities, with particular emphasis on better understanding the mechanisms and processes at the university, municipal and provincial levels that affect the ability of students to remain in Montreal after graduation. He situates his study within the larger debate over immigration and integration in Quebec. His proposal focuses on the complexities of university student migration in Montreal, the pathways for students to become permanent residents, and the barriers facing their integration into the city, while also taking into consideration the effects of Covid-19 on international students and universities. He may focus on one university in particular, or undertake a more specific study on the Programme de l鈥檈xp茅rience qu茅b茅coise (PEQ) and how efforts to reform it are affecting current international students.

Brant Moscovitch will try to use his work with CIRM as the beginning of a larger project which he could ultimately build into a proposal for a postdoctoral fellowship with the FRQSC or SSHRC. This could offer the possibility of continued collaboration with CIRM in the medium-term future, in particular with members who have overlapping research interests.
