The Trudeau Scholars Program grants up to fifteen new scholarships every year to outstanding doctoral candidates in the social sciences and humanities. The Foundation supports doctoral candidates pursuing research of compelling present-day concern, touching upon one or more of the four themes of the Foundation. Trudeau Scholars are actively engaged in their fields, in which they are expected to become leading national and international figures.

The competition is open to graduate student nominees of faculties that intend to work in an area related to one or more of the four themes of the Foundation, and a desire to contribute to public dialogue around these themes. The four themes of the Foundation are Human Rights and Dignity; Responsible Citizenship, Canada in the World; and People and their Natural Environment.

To be eligible for the 2015 Trudeau Foundation Doctoral Scholarship, a nominee is to:

Be a Canadian citizen or landed immigrant applying to a doctoral program in the social sciences and humanities or registered full-time in the first or second year of such a program at a Canadian university

Good morning,
We are writing to inform you that due to the exceptional number of applications SHRF received for the Collaborative Innovation Development Grants, we will be delaying funding decisions scheduled for December 15, 2014 to February 6, 2015. The delay ensures we achieve the same expert and rigorous peer review process for this pilot program as our health research community expects for all of SHRF’s established funding programs. The delay also means that the funding start dates will be changed to February 1 or March 1, 2015. The date changes also take the usual scheduled breaks over Christmas into account.
As you are aware, the Collaborative Innovative Development Grant is a pilot program for SHRF and so we are learning as you respond. We are excited and encouraged by your feedback, interest and engagement and we will continue to adapt and evolve accordingly. An evaluation of this pilot program will take place in the spring.
We apologize for any inconvenience this delay may cause. Please share this information with your team members and any others concerned.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Karen Glazebrook
Director of Funding Programs
