Martin Basiri Graduate Scholarship in STEM

The Martin Basiri Graduate Scholarship in STEM provides two scholarships valued at up to $15,000 each annually to international graduate students registered full-time in their first term of a research-based master's program in the Department of Mechanical and Mechatronics Engineering (MME) in the Faculty of Engineering at the University of Waterloo. Selection is based on academic excellence and demonstrated interest in areas of research currently being conducted in Professor Amir Khajepour's lab. The scholarship is paid in equal installments across 6 academic terms, as long as the student remains registered full-time in the program for which the award was issued. Selections are made annually in the fall term. This scholarship was made possible by a donation from Martin Basiri Engineering (MASc '12, Mechanical and Mechatronics Engineering) to inspire and support the future generation of engineers and entrepreneurs. Recipients must maintain good academic standing with a minimum 80% cumulative average or equivalent.
