Overview
The Joseph-Armand Bombardier CGS Master's Scholarships program seeks to develop research skills and assist in the training of highly qualified personnel by supporting students in the social sciences and humanities who demonstrate a high standard of achievement in undergraduate and early graduate studies.
This program, together with the SSHRC Doctoral Awards, the Vanier CGS, and the SSHRC Postdoctoral Fellowships and the new Banting Postdoctoral Fellowships help train Canada's researchers and leaders of tomorrow.
Tenable only at eligible Canadian universities, Joseph-Armand Bombardier CGS Master’s Scholarships are open to applicants who will be registered as full-time students in a master's or combined undergraduate/graduate program, or in the first or second year of a combined MA/PhD program, and in a discipline supported by SSHRC.
Value and Duration
The Joseph-Armand Bombardier CGS Master's program offers one-time, non-renewable, 12-month awards, valued at $17,500.
Successful applicants must take up their awards in May 2011, September 2011 or January 2012. The January start date is available only to award holders who cannot begin their degree program earlier, either because of an incomplete previous degree or because their chosen degree program is not available until the later date.
Eligibility to Apply
To qualify to apply to this program, you must:
- be a citizen or permanent resident of Canada;
- be applying for support to pursue your first graduate degree (i.e., master's or equivalent) and not have completed more than 12 months of full-time graduate study at the proposed start date of the award (all previous studies at the graduate level, regardless of discipline, will be included in determining eligibility);
- have achieved a first-class average, as determined by your university, in each of t he last two years of full-time study or equivalent;
- not have already received an award for master's-level study from SSHRC, NSERC or CIHR; and
- not be applying for graduate funding in the 2010-11 academic year to NSERC or CIHR;
Notes:
At the time of application, you need not be assured admission to a particular university or to a degree program.
If you completed your bachelor's degree before January 1, 2006 (the date that you completed all degree requirements, not the date of your graduation) and have not been registered at a university since that date, you are not eligible to apply to this program.
Combined MA/PhD Programs
If you are or will be registered in a combined MA/PhD or a fast-track program (accelerating from a master’s program into a doctoral program without obtaining the master’s degree), you may apply to the Joseph-Armand Bombardier CGS Master's Scholarships program for the first or second year of your degree program, provided you have not exceeded 12 months of graduate-level study at the time of the proposed start date of the award.
If you are currently registered in a combined MA/PhD or a fast-track program and have or will have completed more than 12 months of graduate-level study at the proposed start date of the award, you may only apply to the Doctoral Awards program.
Combined Undergraduate/Graduate Degree Programs
If you are or will be registered in a combined undergraduate/graduate degree program, you may apply to the Joseph-Armand Bombardier CGS Master’s Scholarships program only for the period(s) during which you are enrolled full-time at the master’s level.
Direct Entry to Doctoral Programs
If you are or will be registered as a direct-entry doctoral candidate following your undergraduate studies, you may only apply to the Doctoral Awards program.
Application deadline
If you must apply through your university, the university sets its own internal deadline before forwarding the applications to SSHRC by February 2, 2011.
