Funding
SRI Studentship Award
($1000)
One of the main goals of the Student Research Initiative is to help students become involved in research. Each year, we sponsor a student researcher under the SRI Award over the summer, allowing the student to gain research experience while decreasing the financial burden on the supervisor.
Award

Eligibility
To be eligible for the award, you must be an undergraduate student currently registered at McGill University. After you find a research position, either in academia or in industry, your supervisor must sign your application. We have no restrictions in terms of program or year of study, meaning the $1000 SRI Award is open to engineering or arts research in addition to science.
Selection Criteria
Our selection criteria are not based on grades or research experience. Instead, we will look at your passion for research as indicated in your personal statement. The application and contents of the personal statement will be released soon.
