Government of Canada's graduate scholarship and post-doctoral fellowship programs / Lloyd Longfield, chair.: XC79-1/1-441-8E-PDF

"The Government of Canada, through the three granting councils—the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC), the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) and the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR)—has developed a set of graduate scholarship programs at the master’s, doctoral and postdoctoral levels ... Only a fraction of graduate students benefit from these scholarship programs. The vast majority of students are funded through research grants obtained by their professors or through other scholarships from the provinces, post-secondary institutions and the private sector. However, federal scholarships set the standard for the value of scholarships and funding provided to other students by universities and other organizations ... The evidence compiled during this study highlighted the consequences of this situation on students and the next generation of scientists in Canada"--Summary, page 1.
