      History

      The Universities and Research Support Division was renamed the Postsecondary Partnerships and Research Division in 1991, when a new Partnership Development Branch was created within the Division and the University Relations Branch was removed to the Colleges, Universities and Student Support Division.

      By 1992, however, the Division was abolished. The Partnership Development Branch and the Research Support and International Activities Branch were merged to form the Partnership, International and Research Support Branch and was placed within the Postsecondary Institutions Division.
