About this opportunity

Two awards valued at up to $20,000 will be provided annually to full-time graduate students enrolled in research-based master's programs in the Faculty of Engineering at the University of Waterloo. Students must be conducting research in the area of deep technology with a strong emphasis on advanced computing, with the intention of commercializing their research. This fund is made possible by a donation from SPUR Innovation Centre to inspire innovations in computing. The scholarship is paid across three full-time academic terms and can be held in conjunction with any minimum funding students may already be receiving. Recipients must remain registered in the program to receive future installments. The period of this defined term award will be from 2025 to 2026, with the first selection made in Winter 2025 and the last in Winter 2026.
