Terms of reference:
The Canada Graduate Scholarships Master’s Awards administered by CIHR are intended to provide special recognition and support to students who are pursuing or intend to pursue a master’s degree in a health related field in Canada.

Candidates are expected to have an exceptionally high potential for future research achievement and productivity.

Candidates must have completed or be in the last year of a bachelor’s degree or have been enrolled for no more than 10 months as a full time student in a master’s program.

Only those students engaged in full time master’s programs in which research is a major component and who are studying under the supervision of faculty members holding research funds obtained through a competitive peer reviewed process are eligible to apply.

Sir Frederick Banting and Dr. Charles Best CGS D Scholarships (Doctoral)

Applicants apply directly to CIHR for the Doctoral Awards with a deadline of October 15, 2012.; there is no internal university adjudication process.

Interested students should check  CIHR's 2012-13 Doctoral Research Competition for eligiblity and application process information. Note that mid October is high traffic time for ResearchNet; we encourage applicants to begin and submit their application early.

The Routing Slip and Signature Pages are signed by the Office of the Dean of Graduate Studies. Applicants are required to collect all other required signatures before submitting the form to our office. Our office will sign the form, scan and email it to the applicant for direct upload to researchnet.

Q: Can I update my CIHR Doctoral Research Award Application after the Deadline?

A: The only updates permitted after the submission of an application are notices of acceptance of publications, which will only be accepted until November 15th, 2012. CIHR requires a publisher e-mail confirmation sent to the team responsible for the Doctoral Research Awards (DRA@cihr-irsc.gc.ca). 

*Updating your CCV or ResearchNet Application will not update the application that CIHR has received.
