Undergraduate Summer Scholarship for Study in Universities of Canada, Canada

ISM SCHOLARSHIPS

ISM Scholarships for Graduate Studies

The ISM awards several scholarships to Canadian and foreign students who wish to complete a Ph.D. To be eligible for a scholarship, the student must first apply to a graduate program in mathematics at one of the member universities before January 15th. The Department then processes the application and presents it to the ISM.
Candidates who are already registered in a graduate program at one of the member universities should submit the following documents to the chair of the department by March 2:

• up-to-date university transcripts (including undergraduate and graduate),
  
• a curriculum vitae, including research achievements and interests,
  
• two letters of recommendation.
  

For more information, consult the ISM Scholarships Policy.

Travel Bursaries

The ISM offers financial assistance to students who wish to attend scientific conferences. Departments can recommend four students per year for contributions of up to $500 each for approval by the ISM director.
Nominations should include a brief CV, a description of the conference and a letter of recommendation from the student's supervisor explaining the benefits of the proposed trip for the student.
The application must also be approved by the Departmental Chair or Graduate Programme Director.
It is expected that students and supervisors make every reasonable effort to obtain funding from other sources; they should confirm in their application that they have done so.
