1 VANIER CANADA GRADUATE SCHOLARSHIPS School of Graduate Studies Memorial University of Newfoundland September 7, 2018 Dr. Danine Farquharson, Associate Dean

2 VANIER CANADA GRADUATE SCHOLARSHIP Program purpose: strengthen Canada s ability to attract and retain world class doctoral students and establish Canada as a global centre of excellence in research and higher learning. Value: $50,000 per year, for up to 3 years (non-renewable) Scope: Up to 166 awards per year, through Tri-Council Agencies SSHRC, NSERC, CIHR Selecting the appropriate Tri-Council Agency:

3 ELIGIBILITY To Apply: First doctoral degree Completed less than 20 months of doctoral studies (as of May 1 st, 2019) First class average (MUN = 3.5 minimum) Canadian citizens/permanent residents, & international students Have not received a previous, doctoral-level award from NSERC, SSHRC, or CIHR To hold a Vanier: Registered full-time Remain enrolled and demonstrate satisfactory progress Cannot hold, or have held, doctoral funding from CIHR, NSERC, or SSHRC to pursue a doctoral degree

4 VANIER AWARD CRITERIA research potential Awards & scholarships (included on Canadian Common CV) Academic training & relevant work experience Research proposal (feasibility, merit & significance) Contributions to research Critical thinking, originality, creativity Mobility (applicants are strongly encouraged to apply beyond universities previously attended)

5 VANIER AWARD CRITERIA leadership Past Vanier Winners reported: Organizing/participating in volunteer activities 87% Taking on an administrative role 77% Promoting awareness for a particular cause 75% Participating in institutional associations 75% Educating youth or community groups 72% Participating in civic initiatives 65% Taking a leadership role in campus activities 57% Holding a position in a professional organization 47% Participating in campus media 46% Developing & executing a fundraiser 43%

6 Tips from Vanier about Leadership Leadership can take many forms. When crafting this statement, be sure to outline not just your accomplishments for the committee, but how those accomplishments required you to leverage your leadership skills to achieve your goals. The selection committee considers that volunteerism, outstanding achievement in sports or the arts, and employment in leadership positions do not demonstrate leadership in and of themselves. When including leadership in these and other areas in your Personal Leadership Statement, be sure to outline how you have gone above and beyond the expected norms in those areas in order to overcome obstacles, foster others, spearhead change, or otherwise demonstrate leadership.

7 Define your career goals and trajectory, and outline for the committee the ways in which you have created opportunities for yourself and others, how you have overcome obstacles to your vision, and how your PhD research, knowledge dissemination and mentorship activities will help accomplish those goals. How have you fostered your ability to lead others, and how have you leveraged that skill? What led you to doctoral research? How have your life experiences and personal circumstances (which may include administrative responsibilities, maternity/parental leave, childrearing, illness, cultural or community responsibilities, socio-economic context, trauma and loss, or health-related family responsibilities) shaped your academic, research, and leadership choices, challenges, and successes? How has your life driven you to share and disseminate your research? How does your nominating institution provide an environment that nurtures your leadership skills?

8 VANIER AWARDS CRITERIA Academic Excellence First Class standing (transcripts) Academic scholarships, awards, prizes, and distinctions Previous study (academic background, duration & special circumstances) 9 out of 10 Vanier recipients (n=498) reported having received awards or prizes from their universities.
