David Holden Memorial Scholarship

This scholarship is administered by the Guelph/Waterloo Centre for Graduate Work in Chemistry (GWC2) and is in memory of the late Professor David A. Holden. It was established from funds donated by Professor Holden's friends, family and colleagues. The scholarship is awarded annually on a competitive basis and is open to all graduate students registered in the Guelph/Waterloo Centre for Graduate Work in Chemistry. Candidates are evaluated based on overall abilities, including both research and teaching components. Special emphasis is given to outstanding performance in CHEM 794 (MSc Seminar) and to evidence of breadth of interest in areas outside chemistry, such as art and music. Nominations are solicited from Centre faculty and graduate officers by November 15 of each year. The scholarship is valued at $1,000 and is awarded for one year only. Previous scholars are eligible for re-award of this scholarship. The award is presented at the Annual Saturday Seminar of the Centre.
