Objectives

The CHU Sainte-Justine Foundation (Foundation) Scholarships are open to MSc Students, PhD Students and Postdoctoral Fellows whose research project is taking place at the Azrieli CHU Sainte-Justine Research Centre and/or Centre de réadaptation Marie Enfant (CRME) under the supervision of an active researcher of the Research Centre.

Scholarships are awarded to outstanding students to allow them to acquire research training. They are evaluated by a committee of Centre de recherche du CHU Sainte-Justine researchers. They serve as leverage for obtaining external funding.

Scholarship Amounts

The scholarship amount is determined annually by the Research Directorate depending on available funds.

For the current year, amounts are:

$22,000 for the Merit Scholarship at the MSc level
$25,000 for the Merit Scholarship at the PhD level
$44,000 for the Merit Scholarship at the Postdoctorate level
$2,000 for students receiving a professional salary
$2,000 for the Recruitment Scholarship

For MSc, PhD and Postdoctorate Merit Scholarships, funding is provided jointly by the Foundation and the student's supervisor's research funds (1:1). Research funds must come from budget accounts managed at the Centre de recherche du CHU Sainte-Justine.

The students doing a direct transfer from MSc to a PhD degree during the award period will continue to receive the amount initially awarded to them (i.e., MSc Scholarship). The Supervisor's minimum contribution will then have to be adjusted, in order to respect the Centre de recherche du CHU Sainte-Justine's minimum scholarship policy for PhD students.
