The Art Fitzgerald Graduate Research Scholarship is awarded to a full-time graduate student at the Atlantic Veterinary College at the University of Prince Edward Island. Selection is based on the candidate's application for admission to graduate school, including letters of reference. The primary criterion is academic record, and the secondary criterion is potential for success in their graduate program. This scholarship is non-renewable and applicants receiving stipend support totaling more than $20,000 annually are not eligible. The scholarship was established by Art Fitzgerald and family members. Dr. Fitzgerald is a resident of St. Louis, Missouri who spends summers in Springbrook, PEI. A native of Sydney, Cape Breton, he has extensive experience in the biotechnology and nutrition sectors.

Trudeau Scholarship

The Trudeau Scholarship is offered by the Pierre Elliott Trudeau Foundation, an independent and non-partisan charity established in 2001 as a living memorial to the former prime minister. Each year, the Foundation names up to fifteen Trudeau Scholars who are pursuing pressing social and public policy issues in the humanities and social sciences that affect the future of Canadian society. The scholarship provides substantial financial support to help doctoral students conduct their research and engage with policy-relevant issues. Recipients receive both a generous annual stipend and additional funding for research and travel to support their academic work and professional development.
