[Image] This message is sent on behalf of The Office of the Vice-President (Research and International) Re: VPRI Undergraduate Research Award (URA) Opportunities Dear University of Manitoba Undergraduate Students: Wondering what to do in the summer of 2024? Why not experience research with a professor at your own university! Professors at the University of Manitoba, through their work, are contributing to the cultural, economic, health, and social well-being of citizens of Manitoba, Canada, and the world. By tackling challenging and complex issues and topics, they strive to make our lives better and more meaningful, bringing insight to all. UM Professors collectively draw in nearly $220 million from external sources to the University, on a competitive basis, to support their research, scholarly work, and creative activities, and to nurture young minds to become trailblazers, pioneers, and innovators. About the Undergraduate Research Award The award provides the opportunity for you to be mentored by a professor of your choice for 16 weeks (between May–August 2024) and gain valuable experience in your field of interest. Recipients also receive a $7000 award. Of the many awards available, at least 10% of these awards will be made available to students who self-declare as Canadian Indigenous Students on the application form. Furthermore, there will also be a minimum of two awards made available to students working on community-based research projects that are within disciplines supported by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC). To be considered eligible for this opportunity, applicants must confirm with their University of Manitoba professor that the research is community-based research within disciplines supported by SSHRC and indicate this by checking the appropriate box on the application form. Who is eligible? * Must be an undergraduate student at UM. * Must be enrolled in 24 credit hours at the time of the Voluntary Withdrawal deadline (Fall term 2023 and Winter term 2024) * Minimum GPA of 3.0, based on all credits completed at the time of application. * Cannot be held in conjunction with other competitive summer research awards such as the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada’s Undergraduate Research Summer Award (NSERC USRA) * Students who will be graduating in the Spring of 2024 (May/June convocation) are not eligible for this award. * This award cannot be held more than twice by any recipient during their undergraduate program(s) at UM. * Students who hold a master’s degree are not eligible for this award. What do you need to do? * Interview professors (minimum 1) to find out more about their areas of research, scholarly work, or creative activities, and to explore the potential for a research experience with them via the URA. * Once you have decided on your preferred research supervisor, fill out and submit the online application form (found at https://umanitoba.ca/research/opportunities-support/undergraduate-research-…), following any prompts shown on the screen. * The selected researcher will then receive an email with a separate form that they must fill out to confirm their willingness to take on a student and provide details regarding the potential research experience. * Further instructions and information will be automatically generated for both you and the professor/researcher you listed on your application form, upon submission. We are now accepting applications! The deadline to apply is February 13, 2024. When will you hear about the decision? Submissions will be adjudicated by a committee appointed by the faculty in which your chosen researcher resides, where applicable. All applicants for the University of Manitoba Undergraduate Research Award (URA) will be notified of their results by mid-March 2024. Further correspondence with award recipients will be shared, as necessary. Please visit our website for more information: https://umanitoba.ca/research/opportunities-support/undergraduate-research-…. Further inquiries can be made to ura(a)umanitoba.ca<mailto:ura@umanitoba.ca>. We look forward to receiving your application material. Good luck!
