Tri Council granting agencies (NSERC, SSHRC, and CIHR) offer Canada Graduate Scholarships (CGS) of $17,500 for Master’s programs. Brad Whittaker in the Research Services office has assisted students with applying for these research scholarships for many years with great success. He is skilled at reviewing research grant applications and is in regular contact with the granting agencies.
If you are interested in applying for a CGS, contact Brad.Whittaker@ufv.ca and copy Yvette.Fairweather@ufv.ca. They will help you navigate the sometimes awkward CGS application process, review your application, and assist with editing and uploading your documents.
