Subject: [Gs-department-heads] Continuous Registration/Summer Term
Registration
To: Graduate Communications <Graduate.Communications(a)umanitoba.ca>
[image: University of Manitoba Faculty of Graduate Studies]
NOTICE: Commencing Summer Term 2016, all continuing Faculty of Graduate
Studies students will be required to register in Summer Term in order to
maintain continuous registration.
Students in Faculty of Graduate Studies programs are required to maintain
continuous registration throughout their period of study and until
completion of the degree. Exceptions are permitted for students who have
been granted an exceptional or a parental leave of absence. Students who
have been granted a regular leave of absence must maintain continuous
registration.
Registration for Summer Term will open the week of March 21, 2016 –
specific registration times will be visible in Aurora in early March. The
deadline to register for Summer Term is May 6, 2016. As is the case in Fall
and Winter Terms, students who fail to register may be subject to
discontinuance from their program.
In past years, students have been required to register in each Fall and
Winter Term, with Winter Term registration considered to extend through to
the end of Summer. Formal registration in Summer Term has not been
required. However, problems have been identified with respect to this past
practice, including: modification of the tax credit program to provide 12
months of credit with only 8 months of registration; and liability issues
with respect to unregistered students participating in laboratory and field
work activities.
To address these concerns, all Faculty of Graduate Studies students who are
continuing in their programs beyond Winter Term 2016 will be required to
register in Summer Term. Those students who are not enrolled in course work
will be required to register in the applicable Masters or PhD courses:
Thesis, Comprehensive or Candidacy Exam, Studio, Re-Registration,
Practicum, etc. This change does not affect the three weeks of vacation
over a 12 month period to which students are entitled. Students will be
referred to their academic unit for direction as to which course(s) to
enroll in.
Students will not be assessed Program Fees or Continuing Fees in Summer
Term. Applicable student organization and ancillary fees will be assessed.
Students will be advised to contact their department or academic unit for
further information regarding registration procedures in Summer Term.

The IGSS is awarded to international students (i.e. those in Canada on study permits) who are paying the international student tuition fee.
If you are planning to transfer from a Master's to a PhD program, or to apply to a PhD program for the Summer 2016, Fall 2016 or Winter 2017 term, you are encouraged to apply for the IGSS and must apply by the April 1st deadline if you wish to be considered for the IGSS for the 2016 -2017 academic year.

Thanks for going through them and letting us know.
I am copying the students and others involved so they know that the set of
photos we have for 2015 is okay for public use.
I'll keep a copy of this message on file.
Cheers,
Paul

Ike,
Happy New Year.
Sorry for the delay in getting the CanU debrief meeting notes compiled. I
have attached a word summary and the white board notes. These will be
useful for refining the Soil Science module.
We had discussed having a small CanU group within SSGSA for future
offerings of the program (see notes). At this time, I do not have any
indication about the program's future but it would be a reasonable
expectation that it would continue. I will leave it up to the SSGSA to
decide how best to archive this information and have it ready for future
offerings of the program.
I have sent a set of the photos in which the CanU students are shown to
Amberlee. She is to let us know which of these we could show in a public
forum. Maywood and Ahmed also took a lot of photos just showing the setup
of the activities. These will be a useful resource for future planning.
Just one further note, I gave Amberlee a list of the Soil Science students
who participated in the CanU program, so they can be recognized for their
work.
Paul

Competition Open for Canadians: Commonwealth Scholarship Plan - India
The Indian Council for Cultural Relations (ICCR) has launched its scholarship competition under the prestigious Commonwealth Scholarship Plan 2016-2017. Two scholarships are available to Canadians who wish to study or conduct research in India. The scholarships, which are tenable as of September 2016, provide funding for the full length of academic programs in India at the undergraduate, Master's or PhD levels. The scholarship for PhD scholars may be renewed for a maximum of five and a half years.
The deadline to apply is December 21, 2015. Please visit Commonwealth Scholarship Plan - India<https://mp.cbie.ca/mpower/campaigner/redirect.action?d=Yj04OTQmcj0yNTE=&u=a…> for full program details.
The Commonwealth Scholarship and Fellowship Plan (CSFP)<https://mp.cbie.ca/mpower/campaigner/redirect.action?d=Yj04OTQmcj0yNTE=&u=a…> was established in 1959, with the first scholars selected in 1960. The goal of the Plan is to nurture educational links among Commonwealth countries and to strengthen the ideals upon which the Commonwealth was founded. Over 27,000 Commonwealth citizens have held awards - many going on to reach the very highest levels within their profession.
