by Marcia Yoshida

Hello, The application form provided at the link below has been updated, but unfortunately the GETS Guidelines have not yet been updated on our website. Please review the attached updated copy. I've requested that the attached updated guidelines be posted on our website as soon as possible. I apologize for any inconvenience. Sincerely, Marcia ============================ Marcia Yoshida Awards Officer Faculty of Graduate Studies University of Manitoba Phone: (204) 474-9836 ============================ From: Marcia Yoshida [mailto:mlabiuk@cc.umanitoba.ca] Sent: October 14, 2011 4:05 PM To: gs-dept-grad-chairs(a)lists.umanitoba.ca; gs-department-heads(a)lists.umanitoba.ca; gs-deans-and-directors(a)lists.umanitoba.ca Subject: November 2011 Competition - Graduate Enhancement of Tricouncil Stipends (GETS) The Faculty of Graduate Studies in collaboration with the Offices of the Vice-President (Academic) and Provost, and Vice-President (Research) are pleased to announce the November 2011 competition of the Graduate Enhancement of Tri-council Stipends (GETS) program and fund. The purpose of this graduate student support program is to enhance through "matching" funding the number of doctoral and master's students funded from tri-council grants. By increasing our competitiveness in attracting tri-council funds we increase the quota of tri-council scholarships available to our graduate students as well as our quota of Canada Research Chairs and indirect cost of research funds. As indicated in the program guidelines, the GETS program will be supported through baseline funds allocated in the 2011-2012 operating budget for the purposes of academic enhance ($350k) and the Faculty of Graduate Studies RA fund ($350k), which has been discontinued and rolled into this new funding program. The GETS program guidelines have been developed in consultation with the associate deans (research) / research liaison officers network. Completed applications are due in the Faculty of Graduate Studies no later than 15 Nov 2011. I encourage you to carefully read the guidelines for the GETS program to ensure eligibility before applying. An application form and the GETS guidelines can be found on the FGS website at the following link: http://umanitoba.ca/faculties/graduate_studies/forms/index.html Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or concerns.
