NSERC / SSHRC / CIHR Scholarship Workshops

Note: The dates below were for Fall 2012. Our 2013 workshops should be on approximately the same dates in September but we are waiting for additional information from NSERC/SSHRC/CIHR on their changes to the awards programs before we can set our workshop dates.

To help you plan ahead, here are the dates for the scholarship application workshops that we'll  be holding in September. They will all be held in the Halpern Centre, Burnaby campus.

  • NSERC: Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 2–5 pm

Lab drop-ins
We'll also be holding a few computer lab drop-in times for student working on Tri Council Award Applications. This is a great time for applicants to come in and discuss content or technical issues they may be experiencing with their applications. Dates, times and locations TBA — watch our blog or private grad student Facebook group for updates.
