Scholarships for Ukrainian Students

Sponsored by: This bursary was created in 2003 by a $500,000 endowment from the Department of Advanced Education in support of the ministry's international education strategy.

Purpose: To recognize the accomplishments of intern, co-op, practicum, apprenticeship, and research students.

Value: Five awards at $5,000 each.

Eligibility: The applicant must be a post-secondary student or an apprenticeship student taking a practicum, internship, co-op, apprenticeship program, or a student conducting research (one-term).

Selection: The recipient will be selected based on demonstrated past accomplishments and potential for improving relations between Ukraine and Alberta.

A committee comprised of four members, representing the Institute of Ukrainian Studies at the University of Alberta, the Ukrainian Resource and Development Centre from Grant MacEwan College, the Ukrainian Foundation For College Education, and one other member representing Ukrainian interests in Alberta, will review the transcripts and applications of all applicants and determine which students will receive the awards.

The committee will attempt to balance awards among different programs. The full-time enrollment of the student will be confirmed prior to the award being issued.
