1. Is there an application fee?

   There is no fee for applying.

2. Who is eligible to apply?

   Fellowships are awarded to graduating students. Undergraduates in their final year are eligible to apply, as are Master’s students who are completing their degrees.

Internships at McGill are managed by each Faculty or School and will normally require students to be returning to the university after the completion of their internship. Most faculties offer undergraduate and graduate students internships, co-op programs (mining engineering and materials engineering), practicums and field studies. These can take place in Canada and abroad – in some cases for credit.
