At least one award will be provided annually to full-time graduate students in the Department of Philosophy in the Faculty of Arts. Preference will be given to doctoral students who are completing an Applied Research Placement. The value and number of awards will depend on the number of eligible student applicants and their proposed expenses during their Applied Research Placement. If such suitable candidate does not apply, the department Graduate Committee will invite Master's students who are pursuing research in applied philosophy to apply.
Students are awarded on the basis of academic excellence and the likelihood of a student incurring additional expenses due to the nature or location of their Applied Research Placement.
