Canada Graduate Research Scholarships - Doctoral Program

The Canada Graduate Research Scholarships - Doctoral (CGRS-D) program is a federal program of scholarships awarded through national competitions by the granting agencies: the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR), the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC) and the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC). The program recognizes and supports outstanding graduate students pursuing research-based doctoral degrees across Canada. The scholarship provides financial support for up to 36 months at Canadian institutions only, with an annual value of $40,000 per year. Students can apply directly to the appropriate agency if not currently registered at a Canadian institution with a quota, or through their Canadian institution if currently registered. Results are announced on April 30th each year.
