2023-2024 Scholarship Information

2023 Banting Postdoctoral Fellowships

2023 Vanier Canada Graduate Scholarships

2023 Tri-council Doctoral Scholarships (NSERC, SSHRC, CIHR)

2023 Tri-council Master's Scholarships (NSERC, SSHRC, CIHR)

NSERC, SSHRC, and CIHR will host live Q&A WebEx events. These sessions are supported by a series of informational videos available on the NSERC YouTube channel. These videos are intended to completely replace the presentation portion of the tri-agency sessions, allowing NSERC and/or tri-agency staff and applicants to engage in a more in-depth and detailed Q&A session than we would normally have time for.

Participants should watch the videos in advance and come to the Q&A session with specific questions in mind.

Please attend any of the sessions that best suit your schedule. Registration is not required.
