About This Opportunity

The Systematics Research graduate supplement provides financial support to high-calibre students working toward a master's or doctoral degree in systematics. The supplement aims to promote graduate research in systematics in Canada, encourage and support graduate students to carry out all or part of their research at centres of excellence in systematics research, and maintain and strengthen the base of expertise for systematics research in Canada. The program also provides practical work experience with natural history collections within a professional setting. Recipients must already hold a Canada Graduate Research Scholarship (CGRS M or CGRS D) and work with one of the participating sponsoring organizations, including the Canadian Museum of Nature, New Brunswick Museum, Nova Scotia Museum of Natural History, Royal British Columbia Museum, or Royal Tyrrell Museum of Palaeontology. The supplement is renewable annually for as long as the student holds their scholarship.
