Professor Braj Sinha receives Ivany Internationalization Award

The Shastri Institute is pleased to congratulate one of its long-time friends and alumni for being awarded the J.W. George Ivany Internationalization Award at the University of Saskatchewan’s Fall Convocation this year. Braj M. Sinha, Professor and Head of the Department of Religion and Culture at the U of S, is the current Shastri Member Representative on campus and has been promoting Saskatchewan’s academic ties with India for over two decades.

“Professor Sinha has been engaged since his arrival at the University in support of internationalization, both through his own scholarly work as a teacher and researcher, but also as a mentor, leader and advocate for others engaged in internationalization,” wrote the College of Arts and Sciences’ International Liaison Officer, Bob Stock, in nominating Sinha for the award. “Now, the University is moving to take advantage of the rapidly expanding opportunities in India, and is able to truly benefit from Professor Sinha’s years of hard work and network-building between Canada and India.”


Professor Sinha’s many accomplishments in Internationalization at the U of S include co-founding the International Society for Indo-Judaic Studies and Co-editing the Journal of Indo-Judaic Studies. He played a key role in initiating and facilitating dialogue between the government of Saskatchewan and the Indian High Commission ultimately leading to a Saskatchewan trade and academic mission to India in February 2007. Following the Saskatchewan trade and academic mission to India, the dialogue initiated by Dr. Sinha between the Government of India and the University of Saskatchewan resulted in the signing of a contract involving the Canadian Light Source Synchrotron. Professor Sinha has also created opportunities for interactions with scholars from India in the fields of philosophy, religion, biotechnology, journalism, policy research, diplomacy, art and art history, gender studies, Diaspora studies and drama.

In many ways, Professor Sinha’s work with the Shastri Institute has complimented and contributed to his achievements at the University of Saskatchewan. He was the first Secretary-Treasurer of our bi-national board and served on the board for many years. He has also chaired various committees including the India Studies committee, the nominating committee and the organizing committee of our first bi-national conference on science and technology.

The stock of a business is divided into shares, the total of which must be stated at the time of business formation. Given the total amount of money invested in the business, a share has a certain declared face value, commonly known as the par value of a share. The par value is the de minimis (minimum) amount of money that a business may issue and sell shares for in many jurisdictions and it is the value represented as capital in the accounting of the business. In other jurisdictions, however, shares may not have an associated par value at all. Such stock is often called non-par stock. Shares represent a fraction of ownership in a business. A business may declare different types (classes) of shares, each having distinctive ownership rules, privileges, or share values.
