Graduate Students

Supporting graduate students through funding opportunities is a key part of our mission. We oversee the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences Internal Studentship Competition as well as the Tomlinson Doctoral and Cole Foundation Fellowships. Preparing applications and obtaining funding are important aspects of a graduate student's professional development.

If you have a recent publication, we want to know about it. We acknowledge the top publications from graduate students and postdoctoral fellows with Medstar Awards.

If you need to visit another research group for a collaboration associated with your thesis research, you should apply for a Graduate Mobility Award to support your travel.
