PhD Dissertation Awards

Graduate students in population and health related social sciences often work on projects that are not directly related to their supervisor's research program and therefore incur costs in conducting their dissertation research.

In recognition of this and to encourage excellence in dissertation research, Council will fund a limited number of PhD Dissertation Awards in the amount of $5,000.

Eligibility

Dissertation Awards, which are awarded on a competitive basis, are open to any student enrolled in a population health or a health-related social sciences PhD program in Manitoba who has completed all relevant course work and whose dissertation proposal has received approval from the appropriate PhD advisory committee.

Council will accept concurrent applications for a Studentship Award and a Dissertation Award.
