Ken O'Driscoll Graduate Scholarship in Polymer Engineering/Science

A scholarship, valued at $4000, will be provided annually to a full-time doctoral student enrolled in their second year in the Department of Chemical Engineering in the Faculty of Engineering who is conducting research in the areas of Polymer Engineering/Science. Selection will be based on academic achievement (minimum 80% cumulative average in their current program) combined with participation in extracurricular activities. This fund is made possible by a generous donation from Patricia O'Driscoll in memory of her late husband Ken O'Driscoll who was a past Chair and professor in Chemical Engineering and Founding Director of the Institute for Polymer Research (IPR) at the University of Waterloo. Interested applicants should submit a description of the research they are conducting and a brief list of extracurricular activities (max 1 page) to the Department of Chemical Engineering Graduate Studies Office by August 31st of the award year. Selection of an eligible recipient will be made in the Fall term by the Chemical Engineering Graduate Studies Office.
