The Psychology department is seeking nominations for the Toronto Graduate Scholarships.
This scholarship is being established through the fund raising efforts of the Toronto Alumni Branch of the Memorial University of Newfoundland Alumni Association. The scholarship, valued at a portion of the income on the investment, will be available to an undergraduate student, beyond first year, in any field of study who is a resident of Newfoundland and Labrador (a person who has maintained permanent residence in the province for a minimum of twelve months immediately prior to entering the University) and who demonstrates both academic excellence and leadership qualities. Based on scholarship standing it will be awarded by the Senate Committee on Undergraduate Scholarships, Bursaries and Awards on the recommendation of the Deputy Provost (Students) and Associate Vice-President (Academic) Undergraduate Studies.
Psychology and Behavioural Neuroscience majors are asked to nominate themselves for the award by sending a CV or resume, a letter detailing their leadership activities, and letters of reference directly to Dr. Christina Thorpe (cthorpe@mun.ca) of our departmental awards committee. The deadline for nominations is January 26th at 5:00 pm.
