Canada Graduate Scholarship Foreign Study Supplement (CGS-FSS)
As announced by the Government of Canada in Budget 2008, the federal
granting agencies will be administering the Canada Graduate Scholarships
Foreign Study Supplements (CGS-FSS).
The program will be administered by Canada's federal granting agencies -
SSHRC, NSERC and CIHR. A total of 250 CGS-FSS awards will be available
and divided among the three granting agencies.
**Objectives:* *
The CGS-FSS program will support high-calibre Canadian graduate students
in building global linkages and international networks through the
pursuit of exceptional research experiences at research institutions
outside of Canada. By accessing international scientific research and
training, CGS-FSS recipients will contribute to strengthening the
potential for collaboration between Canadian universities and affiliated
research institutions and universities, or other research institutions
outside of Canada.
**Value and Duration of Supplements: * *
The value of the CGS-FSS is up to $6,000, based on the information and
budget justification provided in the application. A defined research
study period would normally be three to six months.
**Eligibility:* *
To be eligible to apply for the CGS-FSS program, applicants must:
-be Canadian citizens or permanent residents of Canada;
-be registered at an eligible Canadian institution at the time of
application; and
-hold an active Canada Graduate Scholarship at the Master's or Doctoral
level or a Vanier CGS
Successful applicants must maintain full-time graduate research studies,
and an active CGS or Vanier CGS during the course of their CGS-FSS
supplement funded activities in order to remain eligible. Eligible
applicants can only take up one CGS-FSS while they hold an active CGS or
Vanier CGS and must do so within one year of receiving the appropriate
notification of award letter.
The Faculty of Graduate Studies internal deadlines are *May 11, 2009 and
September 10, 2009.* Students are encouraged to apply for the May
