Trudeau Foundation Doctoral Scholarships
The Pierre Elliott Trudeau Foundation Scholarship Program will help shape researchers into engaged leaders who are conscious of the impact of their research, connected to the realities of the communities in which they work, and open to non-conventional forms of knowledge. The Foundation is seeking candidates who are audacious, original, and forward-thinking. Up to 16 doctoral Scholars are selected each year and receive generous funding for their studies. This scholarship program supports doctoral students pursing research in one or more of the Foundation’s Four Themes: Human Rights and Dignity, Responsible Citizenship, Canada and the World, and People and their Natural Environment.
Value: Up to $40,000 stipend plus up to $20,000 research and travel allowance per year for three years
Trudeau Foundation application deadline: 5 January 2021 at 11:59 pm EST (8:59 pm PST)
New for 2021 competition: Interested applicants apply directly to the Trudeau Foundation to be considered in the national competition; all interested and eligible applicants may apply. The University of British Columbia no longer nominates a subset of applicants to the national competition (there is no department-level or university-level adjudication).
