This session is strongly encouraged for Year 2 B. Ed students (either campus), first year M. Ed students who will be doing a second year (especially thesis/portfolio but also course-based as well), second year M. Ed students who may be thinking about applying to a PhD program, and all Joint PhD students. Supervisors are also welcome. Dr. Gerald Walton will be hosting a workshop about how to apply for the Ontario Graduate Scholarship (OGS) and Tri-Council Funding (i.e., SSHRC Canada Graduate Scholarship - Masters and PhD levels). Deadlines for these competitions are coming up in the fall and early winter, and it is important to get started early because the process is very competitive and you will want to present your most polished application. Also note that international students are eligible to apply for the Ontario Graduate Scholarship (but not the SSHRC). OGS and SSHRC funding can be held in addition to GA funding. 

 

Please note that all eligible PhD students should be applying to SSHRC and OGS each year unless they hold a SSHRC already. Please talk to your supervisor ASAP about your applications.
