The current Vanier Canada Graduate Scholarships (results released in mid-April 2025) will be the final competitions for these programs.
The Canadian Institutes for Health Research (CIHR), the Natural Sciences and Engineering and Research Council (NSERC), and the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) are working to offer a harmonized and streamlined suite of research training support programs that are responsive to the needs of the research community. We anticipate that more details about these programs will become available later this year.
The Vanier CGS program aims to attract and retain world-class doctoral students by supporting students who demonstrate both leadership skills and a high standard of scholarly achievement in graduate studies in social sciences and humanities, natural sciences and engineering, and health.
Awardees will receive an annual stipend of $50,000 per year for a maximum of three years. Students wishing to apply for a Vanier CGS must do so through the Canadian university to which they are applying for doctoral studies. Visit our School of Graduate Studies (SGS) or the Vanier CGS website to learn more.
