NSERC Postgraduate Scholarships (PGS) M

Canada Graduate Scholarships and NSERC Postgraduate Scholarships provide financial support to high-calibre scholars who are engaged in master's or doctoral programs in the natural sciences or engineering. The Canada Graduate Scholarships will be offered to the top-ranked applicants at each level (master's and doctoral) and the next tier of meritorious applicants will be offered an NSERC Postgraduate Scholarship. This support allows these scholars to fully concentrate on their studies and to seek out the best research mentors in their chosen fields. NSERC encourages interested and qualified Aboriginal students apply.

Since total NSERC scholarship support is limited to a maximum of four years full-time equivalent, scholars are encouraged to complete their studies in an expeditious manner.
